The Midwest Poultry Federation Convention welcomed attendees and exhibitors back in-person to the Minneapolis Convention Center for the first time since 2019. The event featured 280 companies in the exhibit hall, a variety of education sessions and networking opportunities, and total registration at nearly 2,300. 

"While attendance was impacted by the ongoing highly pathogenic avian influenza situation in the poultry industry, those who attended MPF were thrilled to be back in-person with colleagues, customers and friends and the mood was overwhelmingly positive," says President Ross Thoreson. "The convention provided incredible value to both attendees and exhibitors and we look forward to channeling this momentum into 2023." 

The MPF Board also announced its executive leaders for 2022-2023, approved by the MPF Board of Directors at its March 22 meeting in Minneapolis. Officers include:

Also at the March 22nd MPF Board meeting, Van Denburgh was appointed to his second term as a director on the MPF Board.

Looking ahead, the 52nd annual MPF Convention will be held April 11-13, 2023 at the Minneapolis Convention Center. Further details on the 2023 show will be available this summer. In addition, watch for a new name for the MPF Convention as well as whole new look and logo that will be unveiled in the coming months.
