Seven major suppliers of British pet care products will be exhibiting their latest innovations in the British pavilion at Global Pet Expo in Orlando, Florida, next month (March 20-22).
Among the new products on offer will be an effective chicken coop locking door kit, natural foods for small animals, microfibre dog drying coats and towels, grooming products including scented colognes, dog beds, collars, life-enhancing superfood for dogs as well as the latest packaging solutions.
The British pavilion is being organised by PetQuip, the UK pet trade association, for the ninth consecutive year. The British-branded and themed pavilion area will be located in the heart of the show floor and will include a British petcare information booth (4970) that will enable overseas buyers to source thousands of British products free of charge.
The British companies and their products are as follows:
ChickenGuard (Booth 4867), manufacturer of the innovative, automated chicken coop door opener, will be launching a new Locking Door Kit that is compatible with all versions of the ChickenGuard door opener. The Locking Door’s innovative self-locking mechanism provides greater protection against predators as well as peace of mind and additional free time for chicken owners. With seven million chicken owners in America, ChickenGuard is leading the way in helping to keep their chickens safe. \\
