  1. Make connections and network with potential partners

The power of face-to-face interactions is one of the biggest benefits of attending the show. Not only do you have the opportunity to meet directly with more than 1,000 exhibitors to demo products, but you can also build meaningful partnerships with industry professionals dedicated to keeping pets happy, healthy and properly pampered. From What’s New! to the Natural Pet, Everything Aquatic and more, there is likely to be a section of the show floor or group of exhibitors just right for you.

 

  1. Grow your business

Stay ahead of consumer demand by sourcing new, award-winning products from the New Products Showcase. Many exhibitors offer price and/or volume discounts, rebates with a purchase, waived or reduced minimums, free shipping and more. Search exhibitors in the mobile app and discover new products to grow your key categories, expand your customer base and differentiate yourself from competitors.
