The launch of the Middle East Livestock Farming Expo (MELFEX)<\/a> comes at a time when the livestock sector in Saudi Arabia and the wider region is undergoing rapid transformation, driven by expanding investment, growing demand for advanced technological solutions and an increasing focus on production efficiency, product quality and resource sustainability, alongside improvements in animal health, nutrition and biosecurity systems.<\/p>\n

The exhibition aims to serve the livestock farming sector in Saudi Arabia and other Middle Eastern countries by providing an annual meeting place for local, regional and international companies, government and regulatory bodies, academic and research institutions, specialized organizations, investors, producers and livestock breeders. Bringing these stakeholders together under one roof is expected to strengthen integration across the sector\u2019s value chain.<\/p>\n

Participants will also have the opportunity to showcase the latest products, services and technologies for livestock farming and animal production, including feed and feed additives, animal health solutions, vaccines, veterinary medicines and supplies, breeding and production technologies, farm and livestock housing equipment, digital solutions, management and monitoring systems, and technologies designed to improve operational efficiency and productivity.<\/p>\n

The Middle East and North Africa Dairy Forum (MENAD)<\/a> will be a key accompanying component of the exhibition, offering a dedicated platform to explore the future of the region\u2019s dairy industry. Discussions will address ways to improve production and processing efficiency, adopt modern technologies, strengthen sustainability and quality, and examine investment opportunities, experiences and practices that can support the industry\u2019s development and competitiveness.<\/p>\n

Together, the exhibition and forum will provide a professional platform for exploring investment opportunities, establishing business partnerships, exchanging knowledge and expertise, and learning about leading international practices in livestock development and dairy production.

Livestock farming is playing an increasingly important role in food security, given its contribution to domestic production and the supply of animal products, as well as its links to economic activities such as feed production, veterinary services, equipment, technology and food processing. This underscores the importance of specialized events that bring industry stakeholders together to explore opportunities, solutions and emerging developments.<\/p>\n

Hosting the exhibition in Riyadh will further strengthen the capital\u2019s position as a regional destination for specialized exhibitions, forums and conferences, and as a hub connecting companies, investors, specialists and decision-makers from Saudi Arabia and abroad.
