The event provided a platform for industry engagement, knowledge exchange and business networking, reinforcing Vietstock\u2019s role in supporting the development of Vietnam\u2019s livestock industry.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Mr. Ben Wong, Country General Manager of Informa Markets Vietnam, said: <\/span>\u201cThis year marks the 14th edition of Vietstock and more than 22 years of our journey alongside Vietnam\u2019s livestock industry.<\/span><\/i> Hosted by the Department of Animal Health and Production under the Ministry of Agriculture and Environment, Vetstock 2026 is held under the theme: \u2018Shaping the Future of Livestock Industry: Innovation \u2013 Green Transition \u2013 Competitiveness Enhancement\u2019. Vietstock brings these priorities into focus by connecting businesses with the technologies, expertise and partners that can help turn them into action.\u201d<\/span><\/i>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

With more than\u00a0 22 years of engagement with Vietnam\u2019s livestock industry, Vietstock has established its position as Vietnam\u2019s leading international exhibition for the Feed, Livestock, Meat and Veterinary industries.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

More than an annual meeting point for domestic and international businesses, Vietstock serves as a comprehensive platform connecting brands, experts, regulators and leading players across the entire value chain. With its growing scale, in-depth industry programme and extensive international network, Vietstock continues to drive business connections, knowledge exchange and innovation, contributing to shaping the future development of Vietnam\u2019s livestock industry and the wider region.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

CONNECTING BUSINESSES ACROSS THE LIVESTOCK VALUE CHAIN<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Over three days, Vietstock 2026 brought together <\/span>248 brands<\/span><\/b> and welcomed <\/span>13,414 industry professionals,<\/span><\/b> regulators, producers and business leaders; from <\/span>52 countries<\/span><\/b>. Bringing together stakeholders across the livestock value chain, the exhibition showcased a diverse range of products, technologies and solutions spanning animal feed, genetics, farm management, animal health, livestock production and meat processing.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Vietstock also provided a valuable platform for businesses to showcase their capabilities, connect with potential customers and partners, and explore new business opportunities in Vietnam and across the region.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Beyond showcasing products and services, Vietstock fostered meaningful conversations between industry players, creating opportunities to exchange perspectives, identify shared priorities and build business relationships that extend beyond the exhibition. Vietstock has established a strong brand reputation, serving as a strategic bridge between stakeholders and supporting the sector\u2019s continued development.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

ADVANCING INDUSTRY KNOWLEDGE AND ADDRESSING KEY CHALLENGES<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Throughout the three-day exhibition, Vietstock 2026 hosted more than <\/span>89 knowledge sessions<\/span><\/b>, conferences, technical seminars and specialised forums, delivering in-depth insights, timely industry updates and the latest technology trends to attendees.

The Department of Animal Health and Production hosted 3 key conferences, <\/span><\/b>covering a range of practical topics, from technical advancements to regulatory updates and policy directions. These conferences provided a platform for stakeholders to discuss industry priorities, share professional expertise and explore solutions to enhance productivity, operational efficiency and competitiveness. In particular,<\/span> the Dialogue Session between the Department of Animal Health and Production and Vietnamese businesses<\/span><\/b> provided an opportunity for government representatives and the business community to exchange views directly on practical industry challenges, policy implementation and business environment issues, fostering greater mutual understanding and closer collaboration between the two sides.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Vietstock 2026 also welcomed representatives from <\/span>7 ASEAN countries<\/span><\/b>:\u00a0 Vietnam, Malaysia, Philippines, Cambodia, Thailand, Indonesia and Myanmar, to the <\/span>ASEAN Livestock and Veterinary Associations Roundtable<\/span><\/b>.

Discussions at the One Health Forum highlighted the importance of applying the One Health approach through three complementary pillars: biosecurity and hygiene, farm management, and nutrition. By integrating these elements, livestock producers can better safeguard animal health and production performance while reducing reliance on antibiotics. Together, the sessions emphasised responsible disease management and coordinated action as essential measures for strengthening the industry’s resilience and supporting sustainable livestock production.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Industry conferences organised by reputable Vietnam associations also attracted strong interest from the livestock community.

PROMOTING SUSTAINABILITY AND COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Beyond business networking and knowledge exchange, Vietstock 2026 also placed strong emphasis on promoting sustainability, community responsibility and industry engagement through a range of meaningful initiatives and activities, offering visitors valuable experiences throughout the exhibition.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The <\/span>Eggcellence Theatre<\/span><\/b>, as part of the celebration of the 30th anniversary of World Egg Day, featuring an egg knowledge forum hosted by the <\/span>Vietnam Poultry Association<\/span><\/b>, offered informative sessions highlighting the nutritional value of eggs and their role in everyday life.

Vietstock Quest<\/span><\/b>, in collaboration with Nong Lam University, brought together 170 students from <\/span>6<\/span><\/b> leading universities in the livestock sector to compete through a series of interactive challenges and engage with industry professionals. The programme provided a valuable platform for students to showcase their knowledge, apply their skills and gain practical industry insights, while helping nurture young talent, develop the next generation of livestock professionals and strengthen connections between academia and businesses.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

At the <\/span>Sustainability Square<\/span><\/b>, visitors had the opportunity to explore sustainable initiatives and solutions, while engaging in an interactive workshop making animal-shaped soaps to raise environmental awareness and encourage responsible practices across the livestock industry.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Further reinforcing this commitment, the<\/span> Better stands\u00a0 Award<\/span><\/b> recognised exhibitors\u2019 efforts in adopting sustainable booth designs, encouraging the use of reusable materials, reducing single-use structures and incorporating environmentally friendly solutions. Together, these initiatives helped raise awareness, promote the adoption of sustainable practices and recognise businesses actively contributing to a greener exhibition environment.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Extending its community impact beyond the exhibition, Vietstock partnered with Mebi on the <\/span>\u201cListen, Share and Improve\u201d <\/span><\/b>initiative, donating two eggs to SOS Children’s Village Go Vap for every completed survey. The campaign collected 1,010 surveys, resulting in <\/span>2,020 eggs donated to support the children<\/span><\/b>.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

STRENGTHENING INDUSTRY COLLABORATION FOR THE FUTURE<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
