The World Pork Expo will host hundreds of industry vendors, educational opportunities, seminars and networking events on June 8-10 at the Iowa State Fairgrounds in Des Moines. Presented by the National Pork Producers Council (NPPC), World Pork Expo is expected to draw thousands of producers and industry professionals.
“We’re delighted to welcome everyone back to World Pork Expo,” NPPC President Jen Sorenson, communications director for Iowa Select Farms in West Des Moines, Iowa, said in a release. “This year’s Expo has an exceptional lineup of programming, including educational seminars and luncheons. It’s absolutely the industry’s must-attend event.”
Attendees will have the unique opportunity to explore more than 360,000 square feet of exhibition space. In prior years, more than 700 vendor booths representing companies from North America and around the world have presented and displayed products in the trade show space, the release said. There will also be a number of companies with hospitality tents for networking and business opportunities. And don’t forget all of the free pork, too.
“We continue to be the world’s largest pork-specific trade show,” Doug Fricke, Expo director of trade show marketing for NPPC, said in a release. “If you’re part of the pork industry, you’re part of the World Pork Expo.”
