Chairman s invitation Mr Andrew Johnson PPPE 2018 Welcome: Exhibitors and Sponsors It is with excitement and pleasure that I welcome your interest to exhibit and sponsor at the Pan Pacific Pork Expo (PPPE) 2018. The two day event will be held at the Gold Coast Convention and Exhibition Centre on 30 31 May 2018 with a comprehensive program of presentations, workshops and trade displays. The year s theme Driving efficiency together is a call to action to bring producers and industry stakeholders together to collaborate and adopt cost production efficiencies to overcome the challenges facing the industry, in order to remain globally competitive. Boosted by a strong trade exhibition, the PPPE 2018 objective for attendees remains the same; to provide accurate, positive, relevant and high quality industry information in an engaging format. By achieving this, producers will be motivated to apply practical knowledge and processes on farm, for profitable and sustainable pig production. PPPE 2018 is the perfect event for your company to engage directly with producers who want to learn and collaborate with all involved in the supply chain, whether it be genetics and product quality, production into abattoir operations or customer needs in the wholesale retailer and foodservice sectors. This is a hands on opportunity for attendees to engage with your company, as you showcase your products and services. Further, sponsorship of sessions and social functions is also available, an ideal way for your company to promote your business and build association with the event. Through image transfer, your company name and logo will be recognised by producers as a company with a genuine regard for the longevity and viability of the Australian pork industry. As an exhibitor or sponsor, the event will give your business exposure at the pork industry s number one event, support its success and have the opportunity to engage with PPPE participants. PPPE 2018 is designed to be the best yet! Sessions are being finalised and high profile industry speakers are being locked in, all supporting the PPPE 2018 theme. APL is also working to ensure exposure to the greatest number of industry participants, providing an attendance assistance package to all 230 APL producer members. We recommend you put 30 31 May 2018 in your diary to be part of it. Andrew Johnson Chairman, PPPE 2018 PPPE 2018 CHAIRMAN S INVITATION 3
Introduction Background The Pan Pacific Pork Expo (PPPE) combines a pork industry trade show and exhibition with information sessions supported by Australian Pork Limited (APL) and Pork Cooperative Research Centre (Pork CRC). Since beginning in 1998, PPPE has continued to grow, attracting both domestic and international participants. Around 500 producers, members and stakeholders will come together at the Gold Coast Convention and Exhibition Centre (GCCEC) over two days. A large indoor trade exhibition will run in conjunction with an innovative program and social functions, providing plenty of opportunity to network with key decision makers involved in the Australian pork industry. These are listed below: Pork producers Processors Retail and food service industries Researchers Scientists Educators Subsidiary service providers such as insurers and financial institutions Government officials. Information for exhibitors For exhibitors wishing to exhibit at the PIX/AMC 2018 (Poultry Information Exchange and Australasian Milling Conference), negotiations have been carried out with the PIX Organising Committee, GCCEC and ExpoNet to allow PPPE exhibitors to have the choice of leaving their booth in Exhibition Hall 1 or storing additional equipment for either event onsite. If you choose to change your location for PIX/AMC you will need to discuss this with ExpoNet and the PIX Organising Committee. The exhibition company ExpoNet (the official exhibition company for PPPE and PIX) will only charge one lot of cartage and placement to exhibitors involved in both events. Secretariat Secretariat services for PPPE are provided by APL. The technical program for the expo is developed in consultation with APL, Pork CRC staff and industry representatives. The trade exhibition and social activities are conducted in coordination with APL and Pork CRC staff, along with input from various industry representatives. PPPE 2018 INTRODUCTION 4
