From 28 to 30 April 2015, the chain of animal protein Brazilian and Latin American have scheduled an appointment in the ExpoTrade Convention Center in Curitiba (PR). This will be the first edition of FIPPPA Animal Protein Production and Processing International Fair.

Gessulli Agribusiness, organizer of AveSui América Latina, and G5 Promotrade, organizer of Tecno Food Brazil, have joined forces to create the new meeting place for all those involved in the animal protein chain.

This will be a new complete and horizontal event that will cover from production to processing, from farm to fork. The Fair will be conducted biennially, attending a long-time request from representatives of poultry, swine and dairy markets who wanted a cohesive, complete and biennial event.

The innovative concept of FIPPPA already attracted support from the main entities, universities and the media engaged in the promotion of protein chains. One of them is Brazilian Association of Machinery and Equipment (ABIMAQ).

ABIMAQ

Founded in 1975, the focus of ABIMAQ is acting in favor of strengthening the National Industry, involving sectors such as animal protein, to perform actions in the political and economic levels, stimulating trade and international cooperation, contributing to improve their performance in terms of technology, training of human resources and modernization.

The FIPPPA-ABIMAQ partnership will bring international visibility of its work in the leading event. The association will also encourage participation of its members group and will prospect new companies interested in improving their management by ABIMAQ support.

The choice of Curitiba, in southern Brazil, brings several aspects that benefit the sector of production of fresh meat and the processed meat sector. Visitors can see the best of animal protein chain in FIPPPA.

"Our expectation is that really a great and solid event will be born, keeping the focus on these segments and the focus in biannuality. The promoters are proposing to not only conduct a trade fair, but a technical knowledge event, through many conferences. I have to congratulate the promoters of this decision and I hope the fair continues for many years," said Judenor Marchioro, president of the Sectorial Machines Chamber for the Food, Pharmaceutical and Industrial Refrigeration Industry - CSMIAFRI in ABIMAQ.

ANFEAS

The National Association of Manufacturers of equipment for poultry and swine (ANFEAS) also supports the FIPPPA, which makes the event more complete, expanding the participation of the sectors represented at the event.
