For the sixth year running, Harrison & Hetherington have announced the return of their flagship dairy showcase, Borderway UK Dairy Expo, which will take place at the Borderway Exhibition Centre on Saturday 11th March 2017 with Holstein UK as the main line sponsor.
With an international line up of judges, 60 show classes and the Dairy Youth Championships, Borderway Dairy Expo has now become one of the most prestigious dairy events in Europe. This event brings together the crème-de-la-crème of British dairy genetics and highlights the quality of stock that the UK has to offer.
Since its launch in 2012, Borderway UK Dairy Expo has grown rapidly in size and last year the event saw over 350 animals presented for judging, 120 trade stalls and exhibitors, and in the region of 7000 visitors.
