The Pet Sustainability Coalition (PSC) is set to host the industry's inaugural Sustainability Section at Global Pet Expo, a major U.S. trade show presented by APPA and PIDA. In collaboration with APPA, the section will showcase eight accredited members in a dedicated aisle, starting at the PSC Booth #541.
Jim Lamancusa, PSC executive director, applauds APPA's commitment to sustainability, citing data that indicates 80% of pet owners prioritize sustainability in purchases. The section aims to spotlight top-performing accredited members and draw attention to the rapidly growing sustainable pet product sector, outpacing conventional products by 7.1x.
Co-created with APPA, the section is sponsored by industry sustainability leaders: Healthy Pet, inClover, MFiber, Morris Packaging and West Paw. Exhibiting companies, meeting PSC's top performer standards, include Austin and Kat, BetterBone, Bright Planet, Brutus Broth, dsm-fermenich, InClover, Mondi Jackson and Tuesday’s Natural Dog Company.
Jeremy Baker, APPA chief growth officer, emphasizes APPA's commitment to the sustainability movement, stating that the pilot section provides insight into PSC's high-performing members.
