After a two-year hiatus, the Tanzania Poultry Show (TPS) returned to Dar es Salaam earlier this month. The TPS, hosted by the Poultry Association of Tanzania (PAT), exhibits the latest poultry, feed and meat production techniques available from local, regional and international companies and industry experts. Working closely with the PAT, the U.S. Grains Council (USGC) supported the association’s members based in Tanga and Morogoro, Tanzania, to travel to Dar es Salaam to attend the event. More than 60 producers from these regions attended the expo.
Held annually since 2015, the TPS is a leading poultry industry event in the country and has continued to grow since its launch. Held over two-days, the TPS allowed both local and internationally based attendees and exhibitors to exchange knowledge on improved production techniques as well as quality standards and protocols for both poultry feed manufacturing as well as poultry processing.
“This year’s show brought together a record 30 exhibitors – selling out all available space at the expo. More than 1,500 individuals attended the expo over the two-day program – matching, if not exceeding, attendance levels from the previous TPS in 2019,” said Katy Wyatt, USGC manager of global strategies.
Beyond the expo itself, attendees benefitted from more than 18 seminars on various topics relevant to the poultry industry, including poultry vaccination protocols in tropical climates, tools for cost efficient feed formulations and mycotoxin risk management.
As the TPS has continued to expand in recent years, the caliber of topics and information available at the expo has strengthened.
