Vietstock 2026 Opens in Vietnam: 300+ Brands, 13,000+ Visitors and Regional Showcase for Animal Feed and Farm Technology

The event spans animal health and nutrition, feed ingredients and production equipment, livestock housing and farm management, meat-processing technologies, and sustainable production solutions. Its relevance extends beyond product displays: the programme also brings government officials, industry associations, technical specialists and businesses together to discuss disease management, biosecurity, farm productivity and regulatory processes.

Expected exhibitors: animal health, feed, nutrition and livestock technology

The official Vietstock exhibitor directory, updated on 12 October, lists businesses from Vietnam and international markets including China, India, South Korea, Japan, Denmark, Italy, Spain, Germany, Canada, the United States, Thailand, Turkey and Australia. The directory demonstrates a diverse supplier base, although inclusion in the directory does not establish that every company has made a new product announcement or secured a commercial contract at the event.

Selected examples from the official exhibitor directory, not a complete exhibitor list. Sector descriptions are based on company names and commonly associated business activities; individual offerings and booth availability should be confirmed directly with exhibitors.

• Veterinary medicines and animal health: Participation by veterinary-drug and animal-health businesses creates opportunities for supplier discovery, distributor meetings and discussion of local market requirements. The exhibitor list alone does not confirm product registration or regulatory approval in Vietnam.

• Feed additives and nutrition: Feed companies, biotechnology businesses and nutrition suppliers can use the event to discuss formulations, performance optimisation, ingredient sourcing and technical support.

• Poultry and livestock equipment: Equipment manufacturers and farm-technology providers offer solutions across housing, ventilation, feeding, automation and production infrastructure.

• Processing and supply-chain technology: Feed mills, machinery manufacturers and meat-processing suppliers extend the event beyond farm inputs to the wider livestock value chain.

• Indian supplier participation: Companies listed from India include AFVET, Arjuna Natural Animal Nutrition, Arkey Enterprises and BioChem Pharma. Their presence offers a useful entry point for assessing Indian suppliers’ visibility in Southeast Asian livestock markets, although actual export orders or distribution agreements have not been established by the cited coverage.

Expected attendees: who is likely to attend and why?

The headline figure of 13,000 expected visitors covers a broad professional audience rather than livestock farmers alone. The organiser describes the show as a platform for livestock producers, technology providers and industry professionals, with targeted business matchmaking and specialist sessions

The event’s Hosted Buyer Programme anticipates 100 key buyers from Vietnam, Laos, Myanmar and Indonesia. The Bus-in Programme aims to bring approximately 1,000 visitors from Cambodia and livestock-producing areas in southern Vietnam. A Feed-Miller Meet-up is scheduled to bring together around 30 leaders from animal-feed manufacturing companies. These are programme targets, not confirmed attendance counts.

The attendee groups above are expected audience segments inferred from the event’s published programme and exhibitor categories; they are not a verified breakdown of registered visitors.

Conference programme: the most important animal-health and livestock themes

The organiser’s published programme lists approximately 80 conference topics, technical seminars and specialised sessions across the three days. The agenda is especially relevant to businesses seeking practical information on disease management, production economics, regulation and sustainability.

ASEAN Livestock Associations Round Table: a regional cooperation opportunity

An ASEAN Livestock Associations Round Table was held as part of the exhibition. SGGP’s opening-day report identifies participation by associations from Vietnam, Indonesia, Myanmar, Thailand, the Philippines, Malaysia and Cambodia.

The organiser’s programme places the round table on the morning of 22 October under the theme “Sustainable Livestock Farming – The Way Forward for ASEAN’s Livestock Industry”. Its intended purpose is to encourage discussion of shared challenges, development priorities and opportunities for regional cooperation.

However, a meeting of associations should not automatically be interpreted as a formal regional policy agreement or a new cross-border commercial partnership. Any such outcome would require separate confirmation.

Conclusion

Vietstock 2026 opened in Ho Chi Minh City on 21 October with a broad international exhibitor base and a programme spanning animal health, nutrition, livestock equipment, processing and sustainability. Organisers expect more than 300 brands and 13,000 visitors from 40 countries and territories, while the official exhibitor directory shows participation across veterinary medicines, feed, biotechnology and farm technology.

The key test will be what follows: measurable buyer engagement, documented partnerships, credible technology adoption and any verifiable regulatory or industry outcomes. Until those are reported, Vietstock 2026 should be viewed as an active commercial and knowledge-sharing platform—not as proof that new contracts, approvals or technology transfers have already occurred.
