Multiple key projects are also underway across Duncan Farms sites to drive continual improvements with their sustainability and increase their organic free-range production by 30% in 2024. Projects include planting over 68,000 trees on their farms and over 20km of hedgerows to increase biodiversity as well as provide shelter for the hens. They are also working to reduce their carbon footprint, primarily through reformulation of their hens diets, utilising home-grown proteins. Duncan Farms grow and mix all their own feed for their hens which are homed across Aberdeenshire, producing over 18,000 tons of cereals annually.

Since Duncan Farms inception in 2011 their sister business, Muirden Energy has been fully integrated with the farms as part of their investment in renewable energy solutions, including the installation of wind turbines and solar panels at free-range sites and biomass heating at rearing sites.

As part of the rebrand, the new Duncan’s Eggs packs are made from recycled content and are 100% recyclable.

The rebrand also introduces some fun Duncan’s Eggs mascots to further tell the story of the brand’s core pillars. Duncan the Egg is the iconic mascot of Duncan’s Egg, proudly wearing a kilt to showcase the company’s heritage and commitment to supporting local producers. Other characters include Eggbert who represents traceability within the integrated farming process, Shelly the free-spirited mascot representing dedication to renewables and biodiversity and Benedict, the chef mascot passionate about nutrition and quality ingredients.

Duncan Farms’ sales director, Rachael Duncan, said: "The rebranding to Duncan’s Eggs marks a significant milestone in our journey, as we continue to grow. The new name not only honours our family heritage but also reinforces our dedication to producing high-quality, sustainable free-range eggs for our customers. Our commitment to sustainability is at the core of everything we do at Duncan Farms, but it requires continual improvements. We’re excited to bring our customers along with us on this journey. We look forward to seeing the new brand on the shelves of Morrisons stores in Scotland and are excited for what lies ahead."
