A host of new exhibitors have committed to this Autumn’s PATS trade fair as it gears up for its first three-day show.
More than 240 companies and brands have confirmed stand space at the event, including new exhibitors such as Smart Garden Products, Drool Pet Products and Hackney Dog House.
Peter Johnson, Smart Garden’s pet commercial director, said: “We are looking forward to exhibiting at the PATS show for the first time. We launched our Zoon range just four years ago, primarily aimed at our garden centre customers, and have been delighted by the positive reaction we received and the remarkable growth that followed.
“We now feel this is the time to showcase our range to a wider retail audience and PATS provides us with the perfect platform from which to do so.”
Shaun Richards, director of Drool Pet Products, said: “Our brand is just over a year old and very much still in its infancy stage, but we have gained some great momentum as a start-up business. We now feel it’s time to invest in a stand at PATS and get the chance to meet some of our current customers and show our products to future customers.”
Hackney Dog House is one of a number of recently-launched companies exhibiting in the show’s New Starter Zone.
Hackney Dog House’s Nisha Kanapathy added: “We’ve heard numerous positive reviews about the event from our wholesale partners and believe it will be a fantastic opportunity to participate as exhibitors and showcase our growing range of products.
“It will be great to meet all our existing partners and foster new partnerships. We work with a variety of pet retailers and can’t wait to meet more over the three days at PATS.”
PATS 2024 takes place at the Telford International Centre from Sunday September 29 to Tuesday, October 1, 2024. For more information, visit www.patshow.co.uk.
