Aquatics workshop at the International Pet Conference

What growth potential does the aquatics sector offer? At the International Pet Conference on 14 and 15 November in Frankfurt, a special workshop will look at ways and means in which the pet supplies sector can attract new customers to fish-keeping as a hobby. Prominent speakers will discuss current trends and propose solutions to combat stagnation in the aquatics sector. The future of aquatics is just one issue under the spotlight at the International Pet Conference. Other themes and aspects include: How is the retail trade responding to globalisation? What challenges are in store for the industry? How is the Internet – the global market-place – changing the pet supplies sector? And current topics such as “Key trends and developments in the international pet market”, “International retailing”, “International alliances and partnerships between trade and industry”, the “Challenge of China” and “Potential in the growth market of Eastern Europe” also feature on the agenda. The heading for the overall event, organised jointly by Dähne Verlag and B + P Management Forum, is “What effect is globalisation having on the pet supplies market?”
