In November, Heal Eggs Ltd of Hazeldene applied to Telford & Wrekin Council to expand their free-range egg production with a new £1.75m unit. Now, they've been given permission to proceed with the plans.
Across their sites, the business already boasts 328,000 free-range laying hens, 112,000 colony laying hens and 48,000 pullet rearing places but the new unit will allow the business to add 32,000 new free-range hens to their stock.
