Organisers of PATS Telford, which will take place on Sunday, September 25, and Monday, September 26, said the event will be packed solid with the pet industry’s leading firms and brands eager to exhibit their products and services to visiting UK and international buyers.

Organiser Gordon Thomas said the mood is one of eager anticipation as the biggest-ever PATS Telford moves closer.

Here’s what visitors can expect:

• More than 230 exhibitors;
• 50-plus companies exhibiting at PATS Telford for the first time;
• All the latest pet product launches under one roof;
• Top class demonstrations from professional groomers;
• Unrivalled show offers and competitions; and
• New for 2022, a free breakfast or lunch voucher for every visitor.

“There is a tremendous buzz surrounding the show,” said Mr Thomas. “So much is happening at PATS Telford over both days of the exhibition, it really is a must-visit event for retailers and buyers. You won’t be disappointed.

“All the latest new product launches will be unveiled and there will be great workshops from the country’s top groomers. I can promise it will be a great buying experience so make sure you travel to Telford and attend the biggest pet industry exhibition for years.”

Mr Thomas said that one of the major successes at PATS shows over the years has been the New Product Showcase, sponsored by pbwnews, OvertheCounter’s sister title.

This year a record number of new products – 332 in total – will be on show in the designated area. From all the entries, a panel of independent retailers will decide the winners of the prestigious New Product Awards.

Parking is free at the Telford International Centre, and everyone will receive free tea and coffee, and a free show catalogue.
