The challenge of e-commerce
   Online shopping is becoming increasingly popular worldwide. Even many pet owners have switched to ordering products for their pets on the Internet.

 
 
 
Pet’s Place going into e-commerce
  The leading Dutch pet store chain Pet’s Place is launching its own online shop in February. Networking this with the company’s pet stores, numbering nearly 200, is a top priority.   
 
Sector of disappointed expectations
  In the pet supplies trade, terrarium keeping plays only a minor role. This is due to the unwillingness of many speciality retailers to invest much in this segment, but also because in many countries the number of terrarium enthusiasts has not increased on anything like the scale predicted a few years ago.   
 
Baby boom fuels Russian pet industry
  The Russian pet supplies market is developing well. Experts attending the Russian trade show ParkZoo give reasons for this and describe current trends.   
 
CIPS keeps growing
  The 15th edition of the China International Pet Show (CIPS) in Guangzhou, China, set a new show record with an exhibition area covering 50 000 m². More than 750 exhibitors occupied the floor space at the Fair Pazhou Complex.
