Bruce Casalis appointed Chair of Pet Industry Federation

The Pet Industry Federation (PIF) has announced Bruce Casalis as its new Chair following a board meeting this month.

Founder of Bruce’s Doggy Day Care (www.bruces.dog) in 2008, Casalis has been a board Director of the Pet Industry Federation since 2018 and is a recognised pioneer in the pet service sector.


PIF CEO, Nigel Baker commented: “We are delighted to have secured someone of Bruce’s calibre to Chair PIF. There are a lot of exciting developments in the pipeline for PIF members this year and we very much look forward to working with Bruce to help bring these to fruition.”

New Chair, Bruce Casalis added: “I am excited to be taking on the Chair role in PIF’s 75th year and am looking forward to using my experience and passion to help the Federation grow and become an even more effective ambassador for the pet industry.”

 

Casalis began a two year term as Chair in January 2023; details of PIF’s 2023 event schedule will be released shortly.
