The company that organizes the Canadian Dairy XPO at Stratford is now organizing the first
poultry show for November next year.
ROI Event Management’s general manager Jordan Underhill said “We
are filling a need in the marketplace by bringing high-level, international
innovation to Canadian poultry producers.”
CPX will feature:
· Three major trade show halls with more than 200
poultry-focused exhibiting companies from more than 30 countries;
· 400 foot state-of-the-art Poultry Demo Coliseum
with interactive demonstrations showcasing the latest in robotics and
innovation;
· World-class education and knowledge transfer through
global speakers, industry experts and producer panels, and
· Hospitality and networking opportunities for
producers and industry.
The inaugural CPX is
slated to take place November 4 and 5, 2020, at the Stratford Rotary Complex.
“The highest
concentration of commercial poultry production in the country is within a
two-hour radius of Stratford,” said Brian Terpstra, business manager at Trouw
Nutrition Canada (Nutreco Shur-Gain), a CPX founding partner.
“We’re pleased that CPX
will launch in the heart of poultry country, at a proven rural location and
during a time of year that doesn’t conflict with major on-farm activities.”
