The 2025 post-show report records the previous edition on 24–26 April 2025 at İstanbul Expo Center, Halls 2, 4 and 8. The next edition's published dates and venue are stated above; the 2025 figures below describe that earlier edition.

Why VIV Select Türkiye matters to poultry professionals

View connected parts of the supply chain

The official product and exhibitor information spans feed production and supplements, poultry breeding and farm equipment, veterinary and animal-health products, slaughter and meat-processing equipment, refrigeration, egg processing, packaging and logistics. This breadth can help visitors see how decisions in production, feed, health and processing relate to one another.

Compare products against operating needs

Farm operators, feed mills and processors can use the product categories to identify relevant suppliers and compare equipment or services against their own technical requirements. Buyers should assess specifications, compatibility, support and applicable requirements directly with each supplier rather than assuming that all products suit every operation.

Consider the previous edition's reported scale

• 14,585 m² net stand area, reported for 2025.
• 306 participants, including 155 local and 151 international participants, reported for 2025.
• 14,382 visitors, including 10,342 domestic and 4,040 international visitors, reported for 2025.

These organiser-reported figures describe the 2025 edition, not a forecast for 2027. They indicate that the previous show brought together a mix of local and international participants and a sizeable professional visitor group.

Who should visit VIV Select Türkiye?

Poultry farmers, breeders and farm managers

Useful if you are evaluating equipment or services for poultry production. The official visitor profile names poultry farms, broiler farms, layer farms, turkey farms, breeders, farmers and poultry plant managers. Consider comparing farm equipment, ventilation, climate control, animal health and hygiene systems against your operating conditions.

Feed mills and feed-industry professionals

Useful if you source or operate feed ingredients, additives, processing equipment, feeders or mixers. The organiser identifies feed mills, feed-ingredient and additive companies, and feed-industry representatives among the visitor groups. Bring formulation, throughput and handling questions that are relevant to your operation.

Meat processors, slaughterhouses and food businesses

Useful if your work involves slaughtering, further processing, refrigeration, packaging or distribution. The official visitor profile includes meat-slaughtering and processing companies, food-processing companies, meat-product wholesalers and retailers, and related trade agencies. Prioritise the processing stages and product requirements you need to evaluate.

Veterinarians, researchers and industry advisers

Useful if you assess animal health, veterinary products, diagnostics, genetics or technical practice. The organiser lists veterinarians and research and consultancy organisations among the intended visitor groups, alongside government and local authorities. Focus your visit on the evidence, product information and technical questions relevant to your work.

How to prepare for VIV Select Türkiye

1. Define the operating question

Decide whether your priority is feed efficiency, farm equipment, breeding, health and hygiene, processing capacity, refrigeration, packaging or another part of the poultry chain. Write down the problem, the decision you need to make and the product criteria that matter.

2. Prepare comparable technical questions

For equipment, ask about capacity, operating conditions, compatibility with existing lines, installation needs, maintenance and after-sales support. For feed and animal-health products, clarify intended use, composition or technical documentation, storage and handling, and which local requirements you need to verify. For processing and packaging, compare throughput, hygiene, refrigeration and packaging specifications relevant to your process.

3. Build a focused supplier shortlist

Use the organiser's current exhibitor information when it is available, then group companies by product category and priority. Mark essential conversations separately from useful comparisons and exploratory visits. The official visitor-registration page is available through the organiser; check its current instructions and any access conditions before attending.

4. Bring useful operating information

Have relevant equipment specifications, production or throughput requirements, product formats and compatibility constraints to hand. If you are comparing suppliers, use the same questions for each and record company, product, technical fit, documentation to request and next step.

Making a productive visit

Use the product categories to organise your route and leave time for follow-up conversations. At each relevant stand, record the product or service, the operating need it may address, the technical evidence available and what remains to be checked. Distinguish a promising initial discussion from a verified technical or commercial fit.

For a multi-stage operation, consider the connections between feed, farm systems, animal health, slaughter, processing, refrigeration and distribution. A solution in one area may affect another, so note dependencies and questions for colleagues who manage adjacent parts of the operation.

Getting to İstanbul Expo Center

The organiser's access information identifies İstanbul Expo Center as the venue and describes metro access to the DTM İstanbul Expo Center station, along with connections from parts of the city and airport transport information. The page also mentions a fairground shuttle from the metro station. These details may change between editions; confirm the organiser's 2027 transport and shuttle arrangements before travelling.

After VIV Select Türkiye

Sort contacts and product information by the decision they support. For priority suppliers, request the technical documents, specifications, service details or commercial information needed for a proper comparison. Record open questions and assign a colleague or decision owner to each follow-up. For products subject to local requirements, verify the applicable rules with the relevant authorities before purchase or import. Keep market intelligence separate from confirmed product suitability and commercial terms.

Who should consider exhibiting?

The organiser's published categories cover manufacturers and suppliers of feed-processing equipment and ingredients, poultry breeding and farm systems, veterinary and animal-health products, slaughter and meat-processing machinery, refrigeration, packaging, diagnostics, genetics, logistics and related services. The 2025 post-show report recorded 306 participants, of whom 151 were international; these are previous-edition figures, not a guarantee of the 2027 profile.

Potential exhibitors can define a clear objective before committing: introduce a product to relevant professional groups, compare market feedback, identify distribution requirements or explain a technical solution. Assess fit against the fair's stated poultry and animal-protein focus, and confirm exhibiting terms and audience plans directly with HKF Trade Fairs.

Is VIV Select Türkiye worth visiting?

The fair is most relevant to professionals who work in poultry production, feed, animal health, veterinary services, slaughter, meat or egg processing, and associated distribution. Its published categories cover several connected parts of that chain, while the 2025 report records both local and international participants and visitors. Value will depend on selecting relevant categories, preparing technical questions and following up on evidence rather than collecting product brochures without a decision in mind.

Poultry-sector context in Türkiye

Market size and demand

USDA Foreign Agricultural Service reporting states that Türkiye produced about 2.5 million metric tonnes of chicken meat in 2024; the report's 2.7 million-tonne figure for 2025 is an estimate, not a completed result. Production scale is useful context for companies assessing the poultry supply chain, but it does not by itself demonstrate unmet demand for imported machinery or a commercial return.

Market access and what to investigate

Türkiye's Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry maintains import information for animal products, including restricted-country and commodity information, authorised establishments and veterinary health certificates. Importers of meat or other regulated animal products should check the current requirements for the specific product and origin. These controls are distinct from requirements for equipment, feed inputs or veterinary products, which should be verified separately.

What this may mean for exhibitors and visitors

For equipment, feed-system, health and processing suppliers, the scale of poultry production may justify investigating local operating needs, service capacity and distribution arrangements; the available evidence does not establish a particular product gap. Visitors could use the fair to compare suppliers and collect technical information, then test any market-entry assumptions against current regulations and individual business requirements.

Discover Istanbul

Istanbul's historic peninsula brings together landmarks and museums reflecting the city's Roman, Byzantine and Ottoman history. İstanbul Expo Center is in Yeşilköy, in the Bakırköy district, rather than the historic peninsula; visitors can plan any city exploration separately from their fairground time.

Ayasofya Grand Mosque (Hagia Sophia)

Go Türkiye describes the building as a major architectural landmark whose history includes its earlier use as a church and its present role as a mosque. Its dome and historic interior are central features of the site.

İstanbul Archaeological Museums

This museum complex includes archaeological, tiled and Ancient Oriental collections, with objects connected to civilisations that flourished in the region. It is near Topkapı Palace on the historic peninsula.

These city visits are separate from the exhibition venue; allow time for Istanbul's sights around the business programme rather than assuming they are near the fairground.
