The most significant events of the companies’ cooperation will be the Interzoo Pavilion at the Petfood Forum 2025 (28-30 April) and 2027 (26-28 April) in Kansas City, Missouri, as well as the Petfood Forum Europe, which will take place in 2026 and 2028 on the day prior to Interzoo in Nuremberg.
Leading platforms for global business success
“The expanded partnership offers both Interzoo and Petfood Forum participants additional opportunities for networking and professional insight into the industry's most important trends. The Interzoo Pavilion is an attractive opportunity for pet food and pet food technology companies to join us in tapping into new markets, even in the non-Interzoo years of 2025 and 2027. We are also very pleased that Petfood Forum will be a fixed part of the supporting programme at the next two Interzoo events in 2026 and 2028,” says Dr Rowena Arzt, Head of Exhibitions at WZF.
The Interzoo Pavilion offers exhibiting companies a turnkey solution for making direct contact with more than 4,000 industry experts at the Petfood Forum. "Petfood Forum and Interzoo Pavilion bring together pet food industry players and provide a unique opportunity to network, share knowledge and actively shape the future of the industry", stresses Steve Akins, Executive Vice President, Global Petfood and Events at WATT Global Media
The European hub for petfood innovations
Petfood Forum Europe offers a platform for all relevant topics in petfood technology, including for instance technological innovations, sustainable packaging solutions and modern ingredients. As such the one-day petfood conference is the perfect partner event to the world-leading trade fair Interzoo. "Thanks to our cooperation, participant numbers are expected to double since the inception of our partnership. We anticipate that Petfood Forum Europe 2026 attendance will include 400 pet food professionals from nearly 35 countries around the globe," says Akins. "The combination of Petfood Forum Europe, a leading one-day conference, and the world's leading trade fair makes Interzoo Week from 11 to 15 May 2026 an indispensable highlight in every petfood professional's calendar," adds Arzt.
