The IPE and IFE have a long-standing tradition as an important global marketplace for the international poultry and feed industries. During the previous edition, almost 18,000 industry leaders from throughout the US and 96 other countries travelled to Atlanta to attend the show. Over 850 exhibiting companies displayed the latest technology, equipment, supplies, and services for all phases of poultry, egg, and feed production and processing. All segments of the industry are represented: live production, hatcheries, processing, further processing, marketing, feed milling, rendering, and all support activities.
