European egg producer hatches UK move with majority stake in Two Chicks

Two Chicks, the Kettering-based egg white brand, has sold a majority stake in its business to Eurovo Group, one of Europe’s largest egg producers.

While the deal’s value remains undisclosed, the partnership marks a step in Two Chicks’ journey towards broader growth and international expansion.

Founded in 2007 by Anna Richey and Alla Ouvarova, Two Chicks pioneered the launch of the UK’s first liquid egg white in retail, creating a new product category.

Since 2015, Two Chicks has worked closely with Eurovo Group.

Based in Italy, Eurovo generated €1.25bn in revenue in 2024 and operates in over 40 countries.

With the support of Eurovo’s resources, Two Chicks plans to expand its product range and enter new markets.

Despite the acquisition, founders Anna Richey and Alla Ouvarova will remain at the helm of the business.

Richey said: “We are thrilled to join the Eurovo family, which shares our passion and values. Eurovo’s production capabilities and global reach will help us accelerate product development.”

The company, already stocked in major UK supermarkets like Sainsbury’s, Tesco, and Lidl, is seeing increasing demand both locally and abroad, with a presence in countries like France, the Netherlands, Luxembourg, and the UAE.

Federico Lionello, chief sales & marketing officer at Eurovo said: “This partnership is a major milestone for both companies. It connects Two Chicks to our fully integrated supply chain and allows us to enter the UK market with a strong brand. We look forward to working with Anna and Alla to build a successful future.”
