More companies – including a pet product supplier from China – are signing up to exhibit at PATS Telford in the autumn.
Chinese company Gambol Pet Group Co confirmed its attendance at the show, with spokesperson Fangying Wei telling PATS organisers: “Covid-19 is controlled in China, and our work is being carried out normally.”
Gambol is one of four exhibitors – the others being Zoflora, Lah-De-Dah-Dog and Woof & Brew – to have booked stand space at PATS Telford since the end of March.
“It’s a very difficult period for everyone but the fact that companies are committing to showcasing their new products at PATS Telford is a sign that the pet industry is determined to get through this crisis,” said show organiser Gordon Thomas, of Impact Exhibitions and Events.
Zoflora, a brand with almost 100 years of home hygiene experience, is new to PATS. Senior brand manager Vicky Oldroyd said the company was looking forward to the Telford exhibition.
BOOKED
“We’re delighted to be exhibiting at this year’s event, where we’ll be showcasing our innovative ‘Fresh Home’ range. It’s been specially developed to be better tolerated by a pet’s sense of smell.
“The brand aims to connect with pet retailers to educate them about Zoflora’s Fresh Home range, which contains patented malodour technology and has been tested against pet-specific odours, including vomit, urine, excrement and ‘wet dog’ smell.”
Another exhibitor to book its stand this week was Lah-De-Dah-Dog, which is returning to Telford after launching its range of fleece dog coats at PATS two years ago.
Gambol, Zoflora, Lah-De-Dah-Dog and Woof & Brew have joined more than 130 other brands that have booked stand space for PATS Telford, which is on Sunday, September 27, and Monday, September 28, 2020.
The PATS team is now working on increasing visitor numbers to the show in an effort to beat last year’s attendance figure of 2,103, and also on plans for next year’s PATS Sandown, which takes place on February 14-15.
