Founded in 1984 by Elliot P. Gibber, Deb-El Foods was designed to be the most modern egg drying plant in the world. From 1984 through 1993, the company’s sole business was the manufacturing and domestic and export selling of a complete line of dried egg products to the commercial food industry. While continuing to grow and diversify, Deb-El Foods remains one of the largest and most modern egg drying facilities in the world.

Ten years later, in 1994, Gibber added a line of liquid and frozen egg products, ideal for bakeries and food manufacturers.

That same year, Deb-El began to produce and distribute the company’s first retail product --- Just Whites --- under the Deb-El company name. With this entry into the specialty food industry, other products followed including Scramblettes, Whole Eggs, and the Island Blaze line of Hearts of Palm.

Gibber purchased G&L Food Products, LLC in 1996 and thus entered the food service business. The manufacturer of mayonnaise, salad dressings, powdered drink mixes, plus a variety of powdered products packed in cans, G&L packs products both under its own label as well as for private label. G&L’s house label for mayonnaise and salad dressing is called Robert’s Gourmet. The house label for powered drink mixes is Country Farm.

Deb-El Foods continued to grow as Gibber purchased the family egg breaking plant in Thompsonville, NY, and merged it into Deb-El Foods. The Deb-El breaking plant has since been remodeled and expanded and is now a state-of-the-art facility. The Thompsonville Deb-El plant manufactures a full line of liquid and frozen egg products both for the commercial food industry, as well as for the food service channels.

Deb-El Foods is now a major player in the egg product business in The United States and worldwide. Deb-El has the ability to provide any type of frozen, liquid or dried egg product that a commercial manufacturer or a food service operator would require.
