On behalf of the Local Organising Committee of the World Veterinary Poultry Association 2015 Congress, I invite you to become our partner in hosting the 19th World Veterinary Poultry Congress in Cape Town from 7-11 September 2015.The success of this prestigious event depends on supporters and/or exhibitors like yourselves.
Business decisions are made to ensure return on investments. By partnering with us, you will reach both the poultry health scientific community and more importantly Poultry Veterinarians who decide which products to use in the worldwide poultry production arena. As a supporter of this event, your company’s name will be promoted in various ways and you will enjoy the opportunity to showcase your products and lift the veil on forthcoming attractions for new products in this industry.
This is the first time this event will be hosted in the southern part of the African continent. Africa is seen as the food basket of the future, therefore this is an excellent opportunity to explore possibilities in Africa.
South Africa, Cape Town and the CTICC are all excellent choices as the host country, host city as well as the congress venue. I am looking forward to a partnership with mutual benefit.
