These factors have impacted the market's growth rate significantly, leading to slower expansion.

Customer preferences:

Additionally, there has been a shift towards plant-based alternatives to traditional eggs, reflecting the rise of flexitarian and vegan diets in the country. This trend is influenced by cultural norms and the perception of eggs as a high-cholesterol food.
