We meet in Riyadh, the capital of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, as part of the fourth edition of the Pet Expo and the Global Veterinary Expo 2025.

It is my pleasure to welcome you all to the Pet Expo, held in conjunction with the Global Veterinary Expo, now in their fourth consecutive edition. The two expos serve as a comprehensive platform that brings together leading experts and specialized entities in the world of animal care and health under one roof. They aim to highlight the latest innovations, practices and products in the pet and veterinary sectors while providing opportunities for networking and knowledge exchange among professionals and enthusiasts alike.

The Pet Expo offers a complete experience showcasing the latest in care products, nutrition, and services. For the second time the expo will host the Cat Show, bringing together cat lovers and breeders in a unique event. This year also marks the first edition of the International Dog & Cat Grooming Competition, along with a Dog & Cat Grooming Master Class led by international experts in the field.

The Global Veterinary Expo focuses on the scientific and professional development of the sector through specialized panel discussions and workshops covering key challenges and opportunities in animal health, veterinary medicines, modern technologies, and food security.

Together, the two expos provide a comprehensive vision for the future of the pet and veterinary sectors, offering attendees a unique opportunity to learn, explore, and connect with top experts and specialists, in addition to participating in standout activities that enrich the overall visitor experience.

These expos focus on supporting the pet and veterinary sectors and enabling companies and brands to strengthen their presence and expand their businesses in the Kingdom, making them an effective platform for growth and sustainable opportunities. They allow companies, suppliers, and investors in the pet and veterinary sectors to meet, build partnerships, and explore opportunities for market expansion. The expos are not only a destination for activities and events but also a gateway to fostering growth and business development in a rapidly evolving sector.

Thank you for your attendance and engagement with the Pet Expo and the Global Veterinary Expo and we look forward to seeing you next year at the fifth edition.
