Bihar-based Eggoz, which produces and sells brown, white and Nutra eggs, was founded by IIT- Kharagpur alumni Abhishek Negi, Uttam Kumar, Aditya Singh, and Pankaj Pandey in 2017.

Abhishek Negi, Uttam Kumar, Aditya Singh, and Pankaj Pandey had settled into their professional lives after graduating from IIT-Kharagpur. 

However, around 2017, they decided to revisit their dream of pursuing entrepreneurship, which they had often discussed in their hostel and corridors of the IIT campus. 

They found their calling in the age-old dilemma, “Which came first: chicken, or the egg?” They dug up the archives of the Indian poultry market and saw a clear demand and supply gap.
