Importance for China and Thailand

The acquisition of “Thailand Int’l Pet Variety” and “Thailand Int’l Dog Show” is not only important for GIE and IMPACT but most important for the exhibition industries in China and Thailand. For China it’s the first investment of an organizer outside the borders of China along the one-road-belt and for Thailand the first welcome of a Chinese organizer to the Indo-Chinese subcontinent. The newly formed Joint Venture between GIE and IMPACT will bring both countries closer together and improve the industries in both countries. Particularly ornamental fish breeders from Thailand are eager to explore China and Chinese pet manufacturers have now an access to the ASEAN market with more then 500 million consumers.

The General Manger, Mr. Loy Joon How said “We are excited with our collaborations with GIE to further develop and grow the Thailand  Int’l Pet Variety and the Thailand Int’l Dog shows to be key regional shows that support the growth of the regional pet and dog care markets and industry.”

After a long period of international organizer mainly from Europe, USA and India, IMPACT is very proud to host the first Chinese organizer. It’s also the first time that IMPACT sold some of their existing assets and shows to a Chinese organizer.
