There will be businesses dealing with equipment, genectics, nutrition, processing, reproduction, facilities and animal health, accommodated in a wide area of 3500 m2.
The PorkExpo Latin America was born in 2002 and in its very first edition became the largest event of the Latin-American swine production, with over 3.000 visitors and 1.500 attendees, breaking the absolute record of swine production events in Latin America.
In its second edition in 2004, PorkExpo left behind its characteristic of just a Latin American event and received participants from over 35 countries from all over the world and once again broke every record of attendance.
Due to this, from the 2006 Edition, PorkExpo Latin America was named PorkExpo.
In 2008 the Pork Expo consecrate itself the most important event of the segment with more than 20.000 visitors, in three days.
Only to dimension these numbers, today PorkExpo receives participants from over 46 countries. Today there is no other specific event for our sector gathering in just 3 days over 20.000 visitors, 2.500 attendees and over 100 participating businesses.

PORKWORLD Award of the Swine Production
The best representatives of the Brazilian swine production will be elected by the public and the awarding will happen at the Pork Expo. The Porkworld Award to the best representatives of the Brazilian swine production is back in 2008. With the aim to bring prestige to the work of those people involved in the swine production and that contribute to its development, the AnimalWorld Publisher presents the "PorkWorld Award of the Swine Production".
The big difference of this awarding is that it will be done by an online election and by a pre-established technical commission. With this measure, it is intended to hear the independent voice of hundreds of people that in the day to day of their work live with all those who devote their life to this important sector of our agribusiness.
Internet users can vote on those people who in their judgment execute outstanding works in the swine production. In order to vote access our web site.
