Substantial interest in MIPE

The Malaysia International Pet Expo (MIPE), which is being staged from 13 to 16 March in Kuala Lumpur, will welcome virtually all the major international industrial companies as exhibitors in addition to firms from China and Australia. With six weeks to go before the exhibition opens, the organizers report that only 30 or so stands are still available. Industrial exhibitors are expected to take up 240 stands, with 40 stands being occupied by retailers. Around 70 000 visitors are expected to attend, including 6 000 to 8 000 trade visitors.
