Weekly Market Update for 07/31/26
Valuable insights on the latest market price changes for eggs, butter, cheese, and cream products.
Here is a look at the markets:
Eggs:
The shell egg market has leveled off. The NE large market went up only .09/dozen since last Thursday but didn’t change 7/30. Buyers have started to pull back to assess inventories. Mediums advanced only $.04/dozen over the last week. Heat continues to impact the industry along with increased export demand. We have brought in some cage free.
Butter:
The market was all over the place this past week, kind of like the stock market. No one seems to be able to find any explanation. Butter inventories are reportedly lighter than last year, but EU and NZ prices are weak. We have attractive pricing on High Desert label as well as Cabot label butter solids. We also have Sommer Maid butter cups (40495, 40500) available and now a value compared to Grassland label.
Cheese:
The block market was softer this week as well as buyers seemed to have covered their needs. This week we brought in Dinner Bell label sliced processed American cheese (standard of identity with the real seal!). We have 160 white (code 40258) and 160 yellow (12212) along with white loaf (13813) and yellow loaf (13807).
Fluid Dairy:
Check out the attractive pricing on Sommer Maid heavy cream, half & half and sour cream products! Prices for August are lower! Check out the savings!
PUSH LIST. Prices slashed further!:
Daisy sour cream is now available! We are stocking Daisy Brand 4/5lb sour cream (40292) and 100/1oz sour cream packets (40293). Please reach out to your sales associate for details!
For the most complete lineup of dairy products, count on Sommer Maid for quality, consistency and value!
