Hundreds of pet companies have confirmed there is only one place to be this Autumn…and that’s exhibiting at PATS 2024.

The showpiece event, taking place over three days from Sunday, 29th September to Tuesday, 1st October will be packed solid with more than 340 leading companies eager to exhibit their products and services to visiting UK and international buyers.

The mood amongst the exhibitors is one of keen anticipation as the biggest-ever Pet & Aquatics Trade Show moves closer.

Julian Grindey, the new managing director of Pedigree Wholesale, summed up the level of excitement by saying: “We’re thrilled to be exhibiting at this year’s three-day PATS. This will be my inaugural visit to PATS, and I warmly welcome the chance to meet with our customers and partners.

“This event presents a fantastic opportunity for us to highlight the very best of Pedigree Wholesale, and we’re proud to showcase our brand and extensive wholesale offerings.

“The extended show will now make it easier for more customers to visit us over the three days, while allowing us to spend more valuable time connecting with suppliers and exploring the exciting new products available. We’ll be at stand D10 and look forward to seeing you there.”

Inventor Cat director Victor Carpio, who won investment from Dragons’ Den star Deborah Meaden when he appeared on the BBC hit series earlier this year, announced he will be showcasing his innovative Dental Wand product at PATS. He said: “We cannot wait for the show to arrive. There isn’t a better place to introduce everyone to our product range.”

Tracey Powiesnik, of No Fuss Fill, commented: “Following the success last year at our first-ever PATS, we are thrilled to be exhibiting again. It’s the perfect platform for new companies to launch their product ranges into the market. We eagerly anticipate catching up with our customers, meeting new retailers, and showcasing the exciting enhancements to our range for 2024.”

We are thrilled with the incredible response from our very first exhibition at PATS! The three days were absolutely brilliant, giving us the opportunity to connect with many new and existing customers. PATS proved to be the perfect platform for launching our new catalogue and introducing over 350 brand-new SKUs. We can't wait to be a part of next year's event at the NEC!
