About 1,500 exhibitors and 65,000 visitors from around the world are expected to attend the 23rd China International Pet Show in November.
Companies from China, India, Italy, Germany, the UK and Turkey will be showcasing their products and services across the 130,000 sq m of exhibition space, with a range of products covering feed, nutrition and care products, through to toys and digital gadgets for pets.
The day before the show starts, the GlobalPETS Forum Asia will be held, this year with the theme of Global Pet Business. Also on the programme is the CIPS Innovation Award, where a jury of experts will honour particularly innovative products in various categories, and the CIPS Global Ornamental Fish Championship, designed for the fishkeeping community and covering 20 different species.
For international companies, CIPS is seen as a useful platform to address the growing pet market in China and Asia as a whole.
CIPS will be held at the Shanghai National Exhibition and Convention Centre from November 20-23.
