1. What Changes Egg Prices In UAE?
Whether you are a home cook or a chef buying in volume, these are the main factors that shape egg prices in 2025:
- Feed costs - grains, corn and soya make up most of the hen’s diet.
- Farming system - cage, cage free, free range or organic.
- Country of origin - local UAE eggs vs imported trays.
- Brand positioning - economy vs premium, packaging and marketing.
2. Typical Price Ladder – From Economy To Organic
Exact numbers change during the year, but the price ladder usually follows this direction:
| Type of Tray | What You Usually Get | Why The Price Is Higher or Lower |
|---|---|---|
| Economy cage eggs | Large flocks, basic feed, minimal welfare rules | Lowest farming cost per egg |
| Cage free eggs | Hens move inside barns, no small cages | More space and infrastructure cost |
| Free range / pasture style eggs | Outdoor access, more natural behaviour | Land, labour and lower hen density |
| Organic eggs | Certified organic feed, strict controls | Higher feed cost, audits and paperwork |
3. Local UAE Eggs vs Imported Eggs
Many shoppers wonder if imported eggs are cheaper or better. In reality, it depends on season and contracts. Key points:
- Imported eggs may have longer transport times and different feed rules.
- UAE eggs reach shelves faster and often match local taste preferences.
- Organic certification rules can differ between countries.

4. How To Judge Value, Not Just Price
Instead of only checking the cheapest sticker, ask yourself:
- How often will my family eat these eggs each week?
- Do I want cleaner feed and fewer routine chemicals?
- Am I cooking for babies, toddlers or pregnant women?
- Will I use eggs mainly for simple half fry and omelettes, or just baking?
