I Built Vital Farms: A $460 Million Business Selling $10 Eggs

A self-described “serial entrepreneur,“ Matt O’Hayer has started nearly 50 businesses in his life. In 2007, though, he decided to begin a network of family-run farms that produce high-quality, pasture-raised eggs. With 27 acres of land and 20 Rhode Island Red hens in Austin, TX, Matt’s dream -- and a $460 million business called Vital Farms -- was born. Correction: The price of Vital Farms Restorative Eggs is $ and Vital Vacations is a premium Yacht company. An earlier version misstated this information.
