The British Free Range Egg Producers Association (BFREPA) has said that its free range egg show will be bigger than ever before.

BFREPA Live 2023: The Free Range Egg Show will take place on November 15, 2023, at the Telford International Centre.

The association has said that this year’s event will replace its conference, re-shaping the format into a one-day show with the Free Range Awards dinner taking place in the evening.

BFREPA events manager Kate Dickinson said BFREPA Live 2023 is set to be the association’s biggest and best event yet.

“BFREPA Live 23 is set to be our best event yet with a new venue, new format, and more stand space than ever before,” she said.

“This is an opportunity to come together as an industry and celebrate all the positive things we have achieved, as well as finding long-term solutions to the industry’s biggest challenges.”

The event is run in partnership with Noble Foods and is sponsored by ForFarmers, Elanco and Newquip. Workshops and seminars will be run throughout the day on the most topical issues affecting egg producers and the wider supply chain.

This year’s Free Range Awards are expected to see over 400 guests in attendance, which is nearly 30% more than in previous years, BFREPA said.

Nominations for the Free Range Awards are currently open, with nine categories including producer of the year, national food business of the year, free range champion and lifetime achievement award.

Tickets can be obtained via the BFREPA website.
