As we do not refrigerate our eggs in our supermarkets here, the eggs tend to only come from farms within the region and they tend to rather fresh (day or two old max) as well. Customers then refrigerate them as needed until they are used up. It's interesting when compared to the US, but then we also have the cultural expectation that people can and will grocery shop every day or every other day for the perishable items (meat, dairy, eggs, veg, bread) to keep them as fresh as possible.
