Wabash Valley

What Wabash Valley does

Wabash Valley is a privately held, family-owned U.S. egg products processor founded in 1964 by Jerry Seger in Dubois, Indiana, currently led by the second and third generations of the Seger family. The company processes and supplies liquid, frozen, dried, and value-added extended-shelf-life egg products in conventional, cage-free, and organic formats to global food industry customers across the United States, with end applications spanning egg substitutes, dressings, sauces, pastas, breads, baked goods, confectionery, and ice cream. Operations are fully vertically integrated: Wabash Valley owns and operates pullet and layer farms (both cage-free and conventional), a feed mill producing over 150,000 tons of feed annually, three independent egg processing plants in Indiana, Illinois, and Ohio, and a wholly-owned transportation subsidiary called Simple Transport. The Zanesville, Ohio facility, one of the first commercial egg dryers in the U.S., brings more than eight decades of dried egg expertise to the portfolio.

Wabash Valley generates revenue through direct B2B sales of egg products on a quote-based, transaction-driven pricing model, with no public pricing. Its go-to-market is enterprise field sales, handled by a small dedicated team, and emphasizes long-term partnerships built on trust, quality, service, flexibility, and consistency. Customer relationships are anchored by multi-certification compliance (SQF Food Safety and Food Quality, USDA, UEP, American Humane Cage Free, HALAL, Orthodox Union Kosher) and by custom formulation capabilities tailored to specific customer requirements. Distribution is handled exclusively through direct B2B delivery and the company's Simple Transport fleet, with no retail or e-commerce channels. Industry association engagement (United Egg Producers, American Egg Board, US Roundtable for Sustainable Poultry and Eggs, Indiana State Poultry Association) is used to influence standards and maintain industry positioning. Revenue figures, customer names, and detailed financial metrics are not publicly disclosed.
