Two important awards, the pet supplier of the year and pet retailer of the year, were presented at the Pet Conference organised by Dähne Verlag and Management Forum. The award for the best pet supplier went to German aquatics company Tetra. More than 220 pet product retailers voted for the manufacturer on account of its “high-quality products, competent field service and good service from the company”. The pet editorial team chose Kölle Zoo as pet retailer of the year from over 30 pet retailers nominated. It cited the successful themed store concept of the company, which has 12 outlets in Germany, as the reason for its selection. The award presentation was one of the highlights of the Pet Conference, which attracted 165 delegates keen to learn about current trends and developments in the German pet supplies market.
