Pet Asia, which has formed part of Aquarama over recent years, is set to expand significantly in 2009, stresses Aquarama organiser CMP Asia Trade Fairs. As the company has announced, the decision to increase the pet content of the event has been taken in response to both public and trade demand, and to reflect the ongoing growth of the Asian pet market. According to CMP Asia Trade Fairs, many top brand names have already signed up to exhibit, among them Castor, Hagen, Marukan, Natural Ultramix, Organix, Pollux, Delikate, Furry Pals, Bark, Nature’s Gift, Aristopet, Sumo Cat and United Pet Group. Pet Asia will be complemented by a free trade seminar programme dedicated to pets, which will run alongside the highly regarded, aquatics-oriented Aquarama seminars. The general public won’t miss out either, with a free public seminar programme being devised, along with plans for a spectacular dog fashion show to be held on the Sunday.
