World Pork Expo 2025: Bigger, Bolder, and Packed with Innovation

The 2025 World Pork Expo, hosted by the National Pork Producers Council (NPPC), is set to be one of the most dynamic pork industry events of the year. Taking place June 4-5 at the Iowa State Fairgrounds in Des Moines, Iowa, this premier gathering will bring together pork producers, industry leaders, and top suppliers for two days of education, networking, and business growth opportunities.

A Must-Attend Event for Pork Professionals

As the world’s largest pork-specific trade show, the World Pork Expo continues to be a cornerstone event for the industry. Last year, thousands of attendees explored cutting-edge technology, innovative business solutions, and the latest industry trends, showcased by 395 companies across nearly 700 booths spanning 300,000 square feet of exhibit space.

“The World Pork Expo continues to be the premier event for pork producers, offering the tools and insights they need to succeed in a constantly evolving industry,” said Lori Stevermer, NPPC president. “Each year, we bring together the top minds in pork production to spark creativity and shape the industry’s future.”

New Opportunities for Industry Engagement

One of the highlights of the 2025 World Pork Expo will be the Young Pork Advocates Issues Meet, an initiative aimed at fostering the next generation of industry leaders. Additionally, new educational sessions will provide producers and professionals with actionable insights to enhance their operations.

With a focus on knowledge sharing and industry advancement, the event will offer something for everyone in pork production, from small family farms to large-scale operations.

Maximizing Connections & Networking

Networking remains at the heart of the World Pork Expo, and the 2025 event will feature expanded opportunities for meaningful engagement. From industry receptions and hospitality tents to live entertainment and complimentary pork lunches at The Big Grill, attendees can enjoy a mix of business and social events designed to celebrate the pork community.
