Analyst Opinion

The Eggs Market in Iran is currently experiencing minimal growth, influenced by factors such as consumer preference for traditional methods of obtaining eggs and limited infrastructure for online egg sales. Despite this, the market is expected to gradually expand due to the rising demand for protein-rich foods and increasing health consciousness among consumers.

Customer preferences:
As more individuals prioritize health and wellness, the demand for organic and free-range eggs has risen in Iran. This trend is driven by a growing awareness of the benefits of a plant-based diet and concern for animal welfare. Additionally, the rise of vegetarianism and veganism in the country has led to a shift towards plant-based protein sources, including eggs, as a substitute for meat. These trends are expected to continue as the younger generation becomes more health-conscious and environmentally aware.

The government also plays a role in the market, with subsidies and regulations on imports impacting the availability and pricing of eggs.
