UK firms to benefit from new services

UK pet care product suppliers wishing to carry out research into overseas markets can now take advantage of two new low-cost services introduced by the PetQuip association. The services have been tailored to suit exporting firms that may not have the time or the budget to arrange their own research visits or may not be able to exhibit at some of the international trade shows serving their sector. The “PetQuip Group Visit Service” offers firms the opportunity to travel to an international market as part of an accompanied group of like-minded exporters, led by one of PetQuip’s experienced research team. The first visit has been arranged for the Pet Fair Asia trade show in Shanghai. The “PetQuip Explore the Market” service will benefit exporters that are unable to make a personal visit to a market or trade event. The PetQuip team will undertake the visit on behalf of the British company and make initial approaches to key buyers and influential contacts. This service will also apply to the Pet Fair Asia in Shanghai.
