Mason City Protein Processing Plant

Mason City is located in North Central Iowa, about halfway between Minneapolis, Minnesota, and Des Moines, Iowa. Cargill’s Mason City facility, originally named Sunny Fresh Eggs when it was built in 2000, started production in 2001. Over the years, the facility underwent several name changes until it was fully integrated into Cargill’s Protein business in 2017. The Mason City facility currently produces 155 million pounds of eggs annually, which are then turned into over 30 different egg products, including patties, quiches, cups, various egg types, flavors, and case packs. The facility also produces precooked scrambled eggs as well as liquid egg products packed in cartons.
