PIDA was organized in 1968 for the purpose of promoting programs and activities on behalf of the pet product wholesaler-distributor, we accomplish this through Exclusive Membership Benefits, Industry Events, Surveys & Publications, The Power of D for Distributors, and more.
The largest gathering for pet industry executives takes place each January, where the emphasis is on collaboration and problem-solving, not selling, all in a resort setting. The Leadership Summit features world-class speakers, unmatched networking opportunities, and engaging social events.
Global Pet Expo teams PIDA with the American Pet Products Association to introduce the year's hottest new products. It's the pet industry's premier trade show for both buyers and sellers, where new products, product lines and line extensions are launched. Exhibiting is open to Distributor and Associate members of PIDA, and members of APPA.
