Egg labelling requirements during COVID-19

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) is providing temporary flexibility for certain labelling requirements for shell eggs.  This will help to alleviate supply disruptions in Canadian grocery stores, and avoid food waste.

The temporary labelling flexibility applies to generic egg cartons and eggs sold in trays at the retail level.  These measures are now in effect.
