Agribition was a success for organizers, Taylor Swift helped

The 52nd Canadian Western Agribition (CWA) concluded on November 25th with great success and a week filled with memorable experiences. Shaun Kindopp, CEO of Canadian Western Agribition, reflects on the results, sharing that the new initiatives were well aligned with the strategic plan and very well received.

“This year, we launched several new initiatives which are part of our strategic direction to grow the show in new exciting areas,” said Shaun Kindopp, Agribition CEO. “We really feel that CWA is part of the fabric of this community and offers something for everyone. We appreciate everyone who attended and supported both new and existing events.”
