Who will win the prestigious PetQuip Awards 2016? We’re one step closer to finding out.
The international trade association of pet equipment suppliers has released the names of its finalists. The winners will be revealed on September 25th at the Ludlow Suite, International Centre, Telford. The awards themselves are in association with PATS Telford and take place during the show period.
PetQuip’s association manager, Pat Flynn commented: “The event is set to be even bigger and better than last year, with the incorporation of a casino into the main dining room, which has been enlarged to include the drinks reception, a bar and a networking area.
“Tickets are on sale now so if you want to share your evening with industry colleagues and retailers enjoying a fun but inexpensive event with good food and wine, we urge you to book places now as last year’s event was a sell-out.
“Due to the expanded capacity this year, we expect even more of the industry, both manufacturers and retailers, to take part and we look forward to celebrating the best of the pet industry this year with you.”
