yegg

Their name was most likely derived from John Yegg, alias of a late-19th-, early-20th-century bank robber.

Yegg Inc., a California firm that offers business finance solutions, was awarded $16.6 million to supply milk and dairy boxes for the Farmers to Families Food Box program May 8.

In a letter Sunday, James E. Clyburn, chairman of the House’s select subcommittee on the coronavirus crisis, asked George Egbuonu, president of Yegg, to cooperate with the committee’s investigation into the food box program.

“Yegg looks forward to continuing to fully cooperate with the subcommittee’s inquiry, subject to Yegg’s legitimate right to protect its proprietary business information from disclosure to its competitors.”

The House subcommittee alleges that Yegg refused to produce documents in September showing the prices it charged USDA, documents describing performance of its contractual obligations and communications between Yegg and USDA.
