It started as “Candace’s Favorite Things” at the Global Pet Expo.
A friend said “You need to make this official.” So we did!
Today, Candace officially launches the Pet Boss Trade Show Awards!
This isn’t just a fun list. It’s a recognition system built by people who actually run pet businesses, for the brands, booths, and reps who deserve to be seen – not because they have the biggest budget, but because they genuinely stood out!
Tune in to hear:
🏆 Why this award matters and why we want your votes
🏆 The 8 crowd vote categories you can vote on and where you go to vote
🏆 Why brands matter, even the ones with smaller budgets and bigger hearts
🏆 How these awards help YOU shop smarter if you’re not at the show
🏆 Timeline: Voting through August 14th, winners announced August 23rd
Plus the complete voting instructions, where to find the Facebook group threads, and why your voice as a pet business owner is exactly what this award needs!
