“I have been exhibiting at the National Cattlemen’s Beef Association Convention for 11 years, as the lead for my program. It is by far the BEST TRADE SHOW AND CONVENTION that we have the privilege of participating in. The leadership and planning committees do an outstanding job!! The San Antonio event was one of the best. I continue to be very impressed with NCBA and will for sure be back next year!”
