What it is
The Canadian Dairy XPO (CDX) is a dairy industry trade show. The organizer places it "in the heart of Ontario's leading dairy region," bills it as "Canada's largest dairy industry showcase" and says that each year more than 300 exhibiting companies from around the world present their latest innovations to over 17,000 professional attendees.
The show is built for dairy producers, farm owners, herd managers, students and anyone else connected to the dairy industry, and families are welcome. It is organized by DLG Markets North America, the North American division of the German Agricultural Society (DLG).
