Travel Information

Mark Holliday, Sales Specialist and Marketing Manager from Carrs Billington both an exhibitor and sponsor of the event in Carlisle, commented: “Borderway UK Dairy Expo really is a tremendous show of dairy cattle, one of the best in the country. It is a very important part of the UK showing calendar, and from a business side it is a good time to have a show. This time of year, as we are going forward to spring and talking about the summer grazing, a lot of people on the stand expressed interest in the Grassland products. People visit the Dairy Expo from a very wide geographical area, including Northern Ireland which makes for a very busy day."

Jill Hetherington of JP Payrolls commented: “UK Dairy Expo has been a great networking event. I have met many farmers and other business owners and it really is all about getting involved, getting your name out there and making contacts and this is an ideal event to do so.”
