Attendees and exhibitors may now begin to register for the 2017 International Production & Processing Expo (IPPE). The annual global feed, meat and poultry industry trade show is scheduled Tuesday through Thursday, Jan. 31 – Feb. 2, 2017, at the Georgia World Congress Center in Atlanta, Ga., USA.

More than 1,060 exhibitors have been secured, and more than 507,000 net square feet of exhibit space have already booked. More than 30,000 attendees are expected at the Expo through the collaboration of the three participating trade shows, the International Poultry Expo, the International Feed Expo and the International Meat Expo, that represent the entire chain of protein and feed production and processing.

Register online to receive a discounted price of $50 through Dec. 31. Beginning Jan. 1, 2017, the registration fee will increase to $100.

More information about registration, hotel availability, and a schedule of seminars and activities can be found on the the IPPE website.

The popular “Members to Atlanta” (M2A) program, which waives the registration fee through Dec. 31 for attendees from member firms of all three associations that are either engaged in the production of poultry, eggs and meat for consumption or are feed and pet food manufacturers, will return for 2017.

“We appreciate and thank these elite exhibiting companies for participating in the Members to Atlanta (M2A) program. The program continues to deliver results in increasing attendance and contributing to the success of IPPE,” said IPPE show management.

The Expo will highlight the latest technology, equipment and services used in the production and processing of meat, poultry and animal feed, and the event’s dynamic education programs will focus on current industry issues. The Animal Agriculture Sustainability Summit, Worker Safety Conference for the Meat & Poultry Industry, Poultry Market Intelligence Forum and the International Rendering Symposium education programs will also return for 2017.
