            During the war,  the first in the Urals specitlized poultry enterprise, based on the pigbreeding sovkhoz, was set up in 1943 to provide the population and hospitals with eggs. In 1951 the poultry sovkhoz was reorganized into the Sverdlovsk Poultry Factory.

            By the beginning of the  1990's the factory had become a modern high-profitable enterprise. To raise competitive capacity in markets, in 1995  the factory started the cooperation with firm “Lohmann Tierzucht” -  the world leader of  poultry breeders. The result of that – successful production of the eggs of the European quality.

            In 1998 the factory included the  poultry factory “Asbestovskaya”. In 2002 its own feed production was organized.

            Also the sovkhos “Sosnovsky” of the Kamensky district was joined to the factory in 2004, and now the factory, except 3 million hens, has 550 milk cows and 6 thousand hectares of plough-lands.

            The poultry factory produces eggs of three colours – white, brown and sandy.

            The volume of production has exceeded 820 million eggs per year. It was the poultry factory “Sverdlovskaya” that became a champion in producing eggs in package – 4, 6, 10, and 15 eggs, and residents of the city and oblast have liked it.
