SAPA Board Members
Occasionally the question is put what SAPA actually does for the industry. This is a valid question that requires regular reconsideration. Recent issues that SAPA has dealt with:
- Tariffs
- Agricultural trade policy
- Curtailing smuggling
- Food safety issues
- Veterinary matters
- Feed matters
- Training and technology transfer
- Statistics
- Congresses, exhibitions and workshops
- Member liason and information dissemination
- Generic advertising of eggs
- Developing poultry farmers
- Target group liason
- Individual committees attend to sub-sector specifics
- Codes of practice
- Accreditation of hatcheries
- Monitoring of developments in the industry’s environment
SAPA is indeed a medium and catalyst for any matter the industry wishes to collectively address.

Egg Board Members
The objective of the egg organisation is to establish and maintain an organisation in South Africa for the promotion, development and guidance of the commercial egg industry as an independent subsidiary branch of the South African Poultry Association equal in status to that accorded other subsidiary branches of the poultry industry.
The purpose of the Egg Organisation [and its Committee] is to improve the egg industry and promote it on a national level. This entails a critical evaluation of the methodology of control structures, achieving a higher level of operational input, liaising with Government on crucial matters, liaising with consumer bodies, and striving to build a stronger image for the egg industry on an on-going basis. Improvements in the industry can be measured by an increase in egg consumption per capita in South Africa. Eggs are “good for you”.
Also aiming to improve and promote the egg industry across the country, the Egg Organisation:
- Critically evaluates the methodology of regulatory structures.
- Supports an industry code of practice.
- Liaises with government and consumer bodies.
- Collects, compiles and distributes statistics.
- Support training.
- Builds brand awareness to grow the market for the egg industry through the successful ‘Eggs are Magic’ campaign.
