Charlottetown, PE – The International Potato Technology Expo, North America’s leading potato event, returns to the Eastlink Centre in Charlottetown February 21-22, 2020. The event welcomes those who grow and package potatoes, together with the leading manufacturers of equipment and product solutions from across the Maritimes and beyond. The highly successful international event has been held biennially for more than two decades.

The event, which welcomes thousands of attendees and exhibitors to the Island, covers the full spectrum of the industry – from seed, to soil, to growing, harvesting and packaging. It features harvesters, sprayers, pilers, cultivators, storage and climatization technology, tractors, machinery, seed cutters, plant genetics, seeds, bagging equipment, and more.

“We are proud to be bringing this quality event back to Charlottetown and can’t wait to see the potato industry come together at the show and conference,” said Shawn Murphy, Show Manager. “Booth sales are nearly complete with space in very limited supply, and visitor registration is now open. With a growing exhibitor base and a dedicated group of partners backing the event, we are very much looking forward to February.”

Along with the latest in potato technology, the show will also feature a full educational conference program. New for 2020, one convenient visitor registration fee will cover both the trade show and conference portions of the event.

Online pre-registration is open now. Visitors can pre-register today to save money & fast-track entrance to the show. Registration is $10.00 online in advance ($20.00 at the door) and is valid for both show trade days and all conference sessions.

Thank you to presenting partners, Prince Edward Island Department of Agriculture and Land and the Prince Edward Island Potato Board, along with major sponsors, Farm Credit Canada and Syngenta.
