“I have known Grant Crossman for over twenty-five years. Through these years, I have witnessed his strong resolve towards fostering a more responsible pet parent experience, fed by a unified and responsible pet industry. Adding Rodger Salm to the CPE team further supports the determination to achieve these two objectives.
As they embark on the creation of another event, aimed at unifying the pet industry, I wish them the best of success and look forward to their new “pet”project also known as the Connect Pet Trade Expo.
I wish them all the best and much success in their new endeavor”. The Canadian Pet Industry needs this makeover. I believe this new event will do just that. “
"The Pet Industry has grown so much over the years but in some ways has stalled. The Connect Pet Trade event is an exciting addition to the industry for everyone involved or looking to be involved in the Canadian Pet Industry.
Bringing all the pet segments under one roof will help to complete efforts in bringing back an energy of supporting the community as vendor and supporting the industries continued growth.
It is exciting to see the new opportunities ahead for the
pet industry"
“ I have known Grant and Yvonne Crossman a long time attending the Canadian Pet Expo Shows as an exhibitor for many years . Rodger Salm is no stranger to the pet industry having headed up Pet Retail Marketing for many years .
This dynamic group with their combined skill set will result in making their newest venture successful . They listen , adapt and execute which is a winning formula. All the Best in the future I am excited for this ! “
" We are very excited to be able to partner wtih Connect! I believe they are going to be a breath of fresh air for the Pet Professionals in Canada.
We need to bring more support, more networking, more collaboration to the Industry and Connect will help "connect" all of those dots.
I saw first hand what they are capable of creating for the Consumer side of this business, nothing short of amazing! I look forward to seeing the benefits for the Business side of it.
