VIV MEA, the international Feed to Food trade show, returns to Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre (ADNEC) on 23-25 November, 2021 for its third edition. After an unforeseen halt due to the global pandemic, the time has come to meet in person and do business face-to-face.

The city of Abu Dhabi serves as a safe host for this biennial show dedicated to animal protein professionals from the Middle East and Africa. Visitor registration is up and running on www.vivmea.nl and the numbers are showing the upward trend!

2. Exhibiting companies from 40+ countries. Here is a sneak pick: Al Dahra, Andritz, Biomin, Big Dutchman, Buhler, Cobb, Elanco, Jamesway Incubator, Moba, Salmet.
3. A wide range of sectors under one roof – dairy, fish, poultry, eggs, cattle, calves, goat and camels.
4. New products showcase, many of them for the first time since the pandemic.
5. 20+ content sessions, conferences and technical seminars available onsite, covering topics on animal health, farm production, marketing, animal feed, aquaculture, and more.
