Plenty on offer for those visiting Meatup
Visitors to Meatup on the 30th June and 1st July, at Stoneleigh Park, Warwickshire can expect two days packed with opportunities to network and discover the latest innovations and products in the meat industry.
Meatup is the UK meat industry’s biennial trade exhibition, now firmly established as an important networking event for manufacturers, retailers and processors. Registration is free and also includes the opportunity to see top speakers, including Professor David Hughes, as part of the seminar programme on offer in the Seminar Theatre, across the two days.
Visitors to the exhibition can also attend the Agriculture and Horticulture Development Board’s (AHDB’s) Meat Export Conference beforehand, which is taking place at the same venue on 30th June.
The Meat Export Conference, which is free to levy payers, is being coordinated by AHDB’s beef and lamb sector – the re-branded EBLEX – and will discuss the EU lamb promotion programme, medium and long-term prospects for UK sheep meat, as well as a study of world trends and potential for UK beef and lamb in the US market.
Export manager Jean-Pierre Garnier said: “Exports remains one of the cornerstones of our work, adding value to the industry with a focus on the shipment of cuts, rather than carcases. We now export 40 per cent of UK sheep meat, 28 per cent of pig meat and 16 per cent of beef.”
