The
London Poultry Show set a couple of records this year, including 170 exhibitors
and attendance of 3,951 people.
It’s
Canada’s largest poultry-industry show and at 57 years, one of the
longest-running trade shows.
“The
first day had a great turnout of 2,485
people,” said Keith Robbins, who recently moved over from the Ontario Pork
marketing board to be executive directors of the Poultry Industry Council.
“Great
weather, a late start to the season to get on the land and an excellent
opportunity to see new equipment and talk with industry representatives all led
to a very successful show,” Robbins said.
The
show is organized by the Poultry Industry Council in partnership with the
Western District and Farm Credit Canada.
