PIF reports ‘strong start’ to Petindex stand sales

The Pet Industry Federation says it has seen a strong start to sales of trade stands at Petindex.

The UK’s newest pet trade show, which takes place from April 26-27 next year, is aimed at all types of pet businesses, so will not only attract groomers, kennels/catteries and retailers, but also dog-walkers, home-boarders and day care owners.

Petindex will incorporate an international zone and PIF is working with media partner Dähne Verlag, publishers of PET Worldwide to drive interest from overseas visitors. There will also be an Incubator Zone for new suppliers/manufacturers and a strong focus on education with seminars for pet professionals taking place for the duration of the event, as well as the 2020 British Dog Grooming Championships.

The on-site DoubleTree Hilton hotel has been secured for the Pet Industry Federation Awards, which will take place on the Sunday night for exhibitors and visitors alike to attend and celebrate after a day at the show.

Nigel Baker, PIF CEO, said: “We are delighted that so many trade exhibitors have confirmed their interest in Petindex by securing a stand at the show. The aim of Petindex is simply to bring the whole pet industry under one roof at the same time by offering a range of features for pet professionals looking for more than just a trade show.”

DIVERSITY

Jo Amit, co-founder of HOWND, said: “We are always keen to exhibit at new shows, especially if the organisers have run successful trade events in the past with strong pre-event marketing in the lead-up. We have been exhibiting at the British Dog Grooming Championships for years now and always been very happy with the results. What drew us to Petindex was the diversity of the show. We will be able to network with a wider selection of prospects, helped by the fact that entrance is free. We often have to miss the PIF awards so having this take place at the same event is a significant saving.”

Georgina Bashforth, MD of Leucillin, said: “We are delighted to have booked our stand at PIF’s fresh take on an industry trade show, which looks to welcome through its doors not only retail businesses but also all pet care professionals and enthusiasts from all corners of the market. As specialists in animal skin health our Leucillin Animal Skincare is a broad spectrum product which has a huge variety of uses and benefits for all animal owners, professionals and care providers.”

Donna Piercy, from GHS Direct, added: “GHS has been making and supplying hygiene products for over 30 years. We have many contacts and we supply all types and sizes of businesses and people within the animal care sector. This new show will be an ideal opportunity to meet new and existing customers, promote our products and the company.  I feel the show will be extremely popular and will attract many visitors.  GHS are, therefore, very much looking forward to being an exhibitor.”

Petindex trade stands are available in a range of sizes, with each one including shell scheme, fascia board, carpet, power and light. PIF members receive a 20% discount.
