Taiwan technologies take centre stage

“I sincerely hope that Asia-Tech Expo will grow each year to assist Taiwan companies find more overseas business opportunities,” says Tuti Zhi Li, Taiwan’s Deputy Minister of Council of Agriculture, when opening the second co-located exhibition that brought together Livestock Taiwan Expo and Aquaculture Taiwan 2018 with Asia Agri-Tech Expo and Forum in Taipei on July 26, 2018.

That vision is being realised as this annual show – now in its second year – is proving to be an exciting attraction.
 


Held in Taipei’s World Trade Centre which is in the heart of the city alongside the famous 101 Tower which is a landmark that clearly projects the country’s progressive attitude towards technology and its development. And no more was this evident than in the stand holders’ products at this small but burgeoning event.

A broad brush

The organisers are keen to develop as broad a spectrum event as possible to attract not only local buyers but also international interests.

“We are aiming to become the most important trading portal for agriculture; livestock and aquaculture in the Asia-Pacific region,” says Chris Eve, Senior Vice-President of UBM Asia.

By bringing together of these two event organisers - Asia Agri-Tech Expo and Forum joining for the first time with Livestock and Aquaculture Taiwan Expo and Forums 2018 - is providing international buyers with a comprehensive B-2-B trading location. The event, although small in floor-area compared to some, was a concentration of specialist interests. Over three days in late-July 2018 these co-located shows attracted over 14, 000 visitors from 34 countries.

This year’s combined event attracted over 200 exhibitors and show-cased leading technological developments with product brands on display from over 25 countries via either their representative partners or through subsidiary companies located in Taiwan or within the region.

In addition to the Animal Health Pavilion, which was carried forward from the first edition in 2017 and which showcased feed, feed additives, market updates on antibiotic-free farming practices and health management products, this sector featured the largest display of livestock and poultry machinery in Taiwan yet.

Feed companies are finding their way to this show and establishing relationships with the organisers for specific booth locations on the exhibition floor. Buhler China was exhibition for the first time and expressed positive comments on the class and quality of the visitor attending their booth.
