Pioneering egg farmer, organic feed mill founder dies

Jeremiah “Jerry” Cunningham, who founded the state’s first and only organic feed mill, Coyote Creek Organic Feed Mill and Farm, and the eponymous World’s Best Egg company, died Tuesday at the age of 76.

Now, I’m sure Mr. Cunningham was a nice guy, and liked his chickens. But: here’s the definition of the word “eponymous”:

of, relating to, or being the person or thing for whom or which something is named : of, relating to, or being an eponym

How is “World’s Best Egg Compay” eponymous? Do I not understand the definition? Am I missing something?
