If you've searched "price of a tray of eggs in Kenya" and landed on a page showing a single averaged number with no source you can check, you already know the problem: most price pages for eggs show an estimate, not what a specific shop is actually charging today.
Here's what Naivas was charging as of this tracking run, real prices, by pack size:
| Product | Pack Size | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Isinya Eggs | 30-piece tray | KSh 615 |
| Jandee Eggs | 30-piece tray | KSh 549 |
| Basic Table Eggs | 30-piece tray | KSh 519 |
| Free Range Eggs | 30-piece tray | KSh 720 |
For smaller households, the 6-piece packs run from KSh 130 (Green Farm Yellow Yolk) to KSh 175 (Free Range) - roughly KSh 22-29 per egg depending on brand, versus KSh 17-24 per egg when buying the 30-piece tray. Buying the tray is consistently cheaper per egg, as you'd expect.
Why the price range is so wide
The gap between the cheapest (Basic Table, KSh 519) and most expensive (Free Range, KSh 720) 30-piece tray comes down to how the hens are kept. Free range and "Kienyeji" (indigenous breed) eggs consistently carry a 20-40% premium over standard caged-hen eggs across every pack size we tracked.
