# Wisconsin food banks receive thousands of eggs following price-fixing settlement

> Wisconsin food banks and community organizations received more than 400,000 eggs this week, the first shipment of about two million eggs the state is due under a multistate settlement. The settlement, announced in June, followed an investigation by 17 state attorneys general and the U.S. Department of Justice into alleged price coordination by Cal-Maine Foods, Versova/Centrum and Hickman's Egg Ranch.

## Why it matters

The eggs are a one-off donation from a legal settlement and do not change egg supply or wholesale prices. The case does highlight antitrust scrutiny of major egg producers, which could affect how they set prices in future.
