The Canadian Dairy XPO hosts over 300+ exhibitors from 35 countries. These dairy-focused companies travel from around the world to showcase innovation, products, and services at CDX.
Canadian Dairy XPO welcomes more than 17,000 visitors each year, bringing together dairy producers, industry professionals, and decision-makers from across the country. In 2026, the event reached a record-breaking 17,900 attendees, including 9,800 on Day 1 and 8,100 on Day 2.
The Canadian Dairy XPO is a family run business, owned and operated by founder Jordon Underhill until 2024. In August 2024, CDX was acquired by DLG Germany (Deutsche Landwirtschafts-Gesellschaft, the German Agricultural Society), and now operates as a sister expo to Eurotier.
The team who helps produce CDX is made up of producers and industry professionals.
The Canadian Dairy XPO is currently in its 13th year of operation in Stratford, Ontario.
Stratford, Ontario was selected as the host city of CDX as it is a rural location in the heart of Dairy Country. If you were to draw a circle 100km around Stratford, you would find the highest concentration of commercial dairy farms in the country.
