Pats show to include aquatics

The Pats trade show in the UK will be staged from 29 September to 1 October in Telford. Its organiser has announced that an aquatics zone is to be added to this year’s show to cater to exhibitors and visitors from the spheres of aquatics and water gardens. The zone, which will be located in hall 1A of the Telford International Centre and accommodate up to 40 manufacturers, will showcase the latest products of leading manufacturers and suppliers.

“We know from previous attendance figures that 615 of the retailers visiting Pats Telford in 2023 were interested in aquatics products,” explains organiser Gordon Thomas. To emphasise the importance of the aquatics zone, the original name of the Pats show has been updated to the Pet & Aquatics Trade Show. A large number of companies have already reserved stand space in the zone, including Aqua One, Fluval and Exo Terra, Oase, Pettex and Zoomed.
