Ltd., is a 100 percent EOU setup near Hyderabad- the egg capital of India to produce various egg products and is a joint venture be-tween French Major ­ Igreca, Sarl Du Ronceray and Kumar's family in India. Eggway has installed capacity to process 2 million eggs per day which is 12 percent of Hyderabad production of eggs which is 16 million eggs. S. Krishna Kumar, Managing Director, Eggway International Asia says, "The salient features of Eggway's operations are - State of art technology dual pasteurizer, with both plates and tubes incorporated in the same pasteurizer. It is the only company in Asia to produce all the three variants of Egg products which are Liquid, Frozen and dried. The organization has technical and marketing backup from the largest producer and market leader of egg products in Europe that is Igreca."

As mentioned above, Eggway produces all three types of egg products, which are liquid, frozen and dried, and produces more than 25 varieties of egg products to suit the needs of various customers.

And if the requirements and desires of the customer do not fulfil the product range, special products are made along with the quality and development teams for the customers. Further K. Nirmal Kumar, Vice President adds, "As fresh shell eggs were available in abundance and units operating using shell eggs as raw material were smaller in size, there was hardly any company using egg products when Eggway began commercial production in 2012. As we advanced, Eggway encouraged consumers to turn to Egg products, explaining the benefits of using Egg products such as pathogen-free, storage and handling convenience, practical property enhancement and others. From a zero percent in the domestic market in 2012, today Eggway caters to food majors such as Parle, Bauli, Gandour, Gadre Marine, Ulka, General Mills, Sodexo, Tacobell, ITC, Kerry and also to the Indian Army for about 25 percent of its production in the domestic market."
