For more than 50 years, Vanee Farm Centre has been a leader in agriculture equipment sales in southern Alberta and the company is now bringing its expertise to southern Alberta’s largest agriculture industry show. Vanee Farm Centre has signed a multi-year agreement to become the official presenting partner of Ag Expo, held annually by Lethbridge & District Exhibition.

Ag Expo 2025 takes place from Feb. 26-28 at the Agri-food Hub & Trade Centre. A southern Alberta tradition, Ag Expo brings exhibitors from across the globe together in Lethbridge – the heart of Canada’s Premier Food Corridor – to showcase products and services that can directly improve agricultural production.

“We are very excited to have Vanee Farm Centre commit to helping us build and promote Ag Expo,” says Kim Gallucci, Acting CEO, Lethbridge & District Exhibition. “As southern Alberta’s largest New Holland dealer, Vanee Farm Centre is on the cutting edge of technology and serving the agriculture industry, which are priorities Ag Expo shares. This investment from a proudly local company shows the tight-knit nature of the agriculture community that we strive to foster at Ag Expo.”

Founded in Fort Macleod in 1967, Vanee Farm Centre moved to Lethbridge in 1987. Purchased by a group of southern Alberta farmers in 2018, Vanee Farm Centre now has locations in Lethbridge, Taber, Claresholm and High River. With a goal to exceed customers’ expectations by providing the highest quality products, services, and aftermarket support, Vanee Farm Centre works to be a leading-edge agri-business while creating an environment that provides all of its employees the opportunity to grow and to contribute to our long-term success.

In a statement, Vanee Farm Centre said: “Vanee Farm Centre has a deep passion for agriculture and its vital role in our community. Ag Expo is an important tradition that not only showcases the latest advancements in farming technology but also unites us in our commitment to innovation and excellence in the industry. Our aim is for Ag Expo to be a showcase of all the diverse machine brands and dealers, emphasizing cutting-edge developments in farming technology, and ensuring an engaging and informative experience for all attendees. Partnering together with Lethbridge & District Exhibition, we are excited to help elevate Ag Expo to the premier ag show in the industry, celebrating the hard work and dedication of farmers who feed our future.”

Vendor space for Ag Expo 2025 has already sold out as more than 300 companies will be on-hand to showcase the latest in farming equipment, new industry technology, irrigation systems, livestock supplies, chemicals, seeds and more. This year’s event will also feature the return of Machinery Row, an outdoor area showcasing the latest heavy-duty farm equipment, and the annual North American Seed Fair.
