Pedigree signs exclusive distribution for grooming and hygiene brand

Pedigree Wholesale has confirmed it has become the exclusive distributor for TropiClean, an established pet grooming and hygiene brand into the specialist pet trade.

The relationship will include exclusive distribution for all TropiClean products including their current range of flea and tick shampoos that repel unwanted pests for up to seven days and its dental health products which include gels, sticks, sprays and drops.

Steve Brown, managing director at Pedigree Wholesale, said: “I’ve grown up in the pet trade and the team at TropiClean are some of the most passionate people you’ll meet in the trade, they’re committed to meeting the needs of specialist retailers, consumers and their pets. It’s a brand that I strongly believe should be on the shelf of every pet shop in the country.”

Gerard O’Mahony, commercial director at Pedigree Wholesale, added: “The TropiClean brand is the perfect addition to the Pedigree Wholesale portfolio which now includes exclusive brands for the specialist pet trade in a large range of product areas from Chuckit! a dog toys and play brand to Hurtta a range of quality dog harnesses.”

TropiClean had the opportunity to discuss its grooming range with over 200 retailers on 12 June at Pedigree Wholesale’s annual trade show held at Hangar 42 in Leicestershire.

Paul Mercer, European sales manager at Tropiclean, said: “It was great to see existing customers who are committed to the brand and the sales it brings to their business as well as so many new faces who were impressed by our range and are considering becoming new stockists now we are exclusively available at Pedigree.”

To celebrate the new partnership, the team have announced a range of exclusive introductory deals as a further incentive for specialist pet retailers to recognise the benefits of the brand.

The range is available from Pedigree now.
