Don’t take our word for it, take theirs
“Global Pet Expo is everything you need. You have connections with buyers and accounts that you likely would never be had a face-to-face with. You have education that is widely available for all your employees to get smart about your products, to get smart about animals, to understand what cutting-edge research and technology is.”

"What Global Pet Expo provides for us is this incredible platform where we all come together, we share best practices, we learn from one another, we raise each other's games. It's really special to be able to do that with like-minded organizations across the globe."

“From an education standpoint, there are different speakers that we go and listen to to help us better understand different facets of the pet industry that may be not exactly what we do, but they all somehow fit into the overall profile of how we become a better supplier to our customers.”
