Why Assam is the Gateway to Northeast Egg Market?
Assam, known as the "Gateway to Northeast India," is the largest egg market hub in the entire Northeast region. Guwahati's Fancy Bazaar handles 15-20 lakh eggs daily and sets benchmark prices for all 7 Sister States. While local production meets only 35-40% of demand, the state imports 60-65% of its requirement from West Bengal, Bihar, and Andhra Pradesh. The strategic location and well-connected rail/road network makes Assam the primary distribution center for eggs across Meghalaya, Arunachal Pradesh, Nagaland, Manipur, Mizoram, and Tripura.
