Since its foundation over 70 years ago, internationalization and innovation have been key pillars of Prado Silos’ growth, establishing this firm as Europe’s most experienced manufacturer in large-scale storage solutions. In 2025, the company will further expand its global presence by participating in leading international agro-industrial trade fairs, IPPE and VIV Asia 2025. These events provide a valuable platform to showcase new silo models, explore emerging market opportunities, and strengthen strategic partnerships.
Following a dynamic 2024 for Prado Silos at global industry events, the silo sector is set for another packed year of key trade shows. The 2025 agenda features renowned exhibitions, including the International Production & Processing Expo (IPPE) in Atlanta, USA, and VIV Asia in Bangkok, Thailand. These global events provide Prado Silos with the opportunity not only to showcase its latest innovations but also to engage in meaningful dialogue with industry professionals and gain first-hand insight into emerging market trends.
From January 28th to 30th, Prado Silos attended the International Production & Processing Expo in Atlanta, where more than 1,300 exhibitors showcased their solutions, attracting over 31,000 visitors from 130 countries. As the largest annual trade show dedicated to technology and services for the poultry, meat, and animal feed industries, IPPE 2025 served as a key meeting point for professionals worldwide looking for cutting-edge solutions to improve production and processing. This important conference has become a key event in the Americas, known for its capacity to bring together the main industries in food processing, animal production, and feed manufacturing.
With a strong track record of success across the Americas, Prado Silos sees IPPE 2025 as a strategic platform to present its latest innovations designed to enhance operational efficiency, lower costs, and reduce environmental impact. Since IPPE takes place in Atlanta, one of the leading industrial hubs in the United States, Prado Silos has the opportunity to reinforce its presence in the North American market while exploring new expansion opportunities in Latin America. Both markets are increasingly seeking solutions that combine durability with high operational efficiency.
The 2025 edition of IPPE also attracted special attention given the political landscape in the United States, shaped by President Trump’s return following the 2024 elections. This shift in leadership may bring substantial changes to the agro-industrial sector, especially regarding trade policies, sustainability, and regulatory frameworks for the environment and food production. Prado Silos took a comprehensive approach to evaluate the potential effects of the evolving political scenario in the US.
In March, Prado Silos will travel to Thailand to participate in VIV Asia 2025, the leading event for the animal feed and feed production sector in Asia. This major trade fair is expected to attract more than 50,000 visitors, with 1,500 exhibitors from over 100 countries. VIV Asia provides a unique platform for accessing the fast-growing Asian markets, including ASEAN, China, and India. Furthermore, this major exhibition is held in conjunction with the Meat Pro Asia and HortiAgriNext Asia trade fairs, offering additional opportunities for industry professionals to explore new business ventures.
Shaped by fast-paced demographic expansion and the ongoing modernization of agricultural infrastructures, the Asian market offers substantial potential. There has been a sharp increase in demand for compact and resilient storage solutions capable of functioning in extreme weather conditions, and Prado Silos is strategically positioned to meet these growing needs. In Bangkok, Prado Silos will proudly showcase its cutting-edge expertise in innovative technologies, including the XM310 coating, a groundbreaking solution meticulously developed to provide exceptional corrosion protection. This advanced coating not only significantly extends the lifespan of metal silos but also enhances the safety and stability of silo plants, ensuring optimal performance even under the harshest environmental conditions.
Prado Silos’ involvement in distinguished international trade fairs such as IPPE and VIV Asia 2025 goes far beyond product showcases. These global events offer a unique vantage point for understanding the evolving dynamics of the agro-industrial sector, including the shift towards sustainability and the growing integration of digitalization in agricultural management. Taking full advantage of these opportunities, Prado Silos remains attuned to the emerging needs of the market, continuously adapting its solutions and reinforcing its standing as a leading force in the industry.
In a global context where the dual challenges of climate change and population growth increasingly strain the agricultural sector and its interconnected industries, storage solutions emerge as a cornerstone of sustainability. These technologies are crucial for maintaining grain quality, minimizing post-harvest losses, and enhancing the sustainability of supply chains—key elements in ensuring the world’s ability to nourish a growing population. With over 70 years of expertise, Prado Silos addresses these pressing needs by implementing advanced technologies like the XM310 anti-corrosion coatings and state-of-the-art intelligent sensor systems. These technologies allow for precise monitoring of temperature and humidity levels, minimizing operational costs and losses while maintaining the highest standards of storage quality.
To sum up, in 2025, Prado Silos aims to fortify its position as a global leader, with a clear vision focused on sustainability and cutting-edge innovation. With a growing portfolio of competitive, innovative solutions and a strengthened foothold in critical markets such as the Americas and Asia, the company is positioning itself as an indispensable player in the future of agro-industrial storage.
