California Egg exchange inc & California Commidities
About Us
California Egg Exchange Inc. is more than a wholesale egg supplier — it is the continuation of a family tradition spanning more than 40 years in American agriculture. From the humble beginnings of Grundmeier’s Hatchery in Iowa, our family has carried forward values of faith, integrity, and hard work across three generations.
From Hatchery to National Supplier
What started with Clarence F. Grundmeier (CFG) raising and hatching poultry in Iowa has grown into a nationwide wholesale operation, led by Gerald F., Cory F., and now Collin F. Each generation has expanded the vision while keeping the same unwavering commitment to excellence.
