H.H. Backer / 2012 Pet Industry CHRISTmas Show
October for approximately the past 20 years, includes exhibiting at the H.H. Backer Show in Chicago. Yesterday was set-up. It was too easy! We rented a booth this year (yes, that is green/eco friendly at it’s finest). At noon, attended a meeting presented by APPA with our host, Dr. David A. Dzanis, who always does a great job at keeping us informed on Regulatory issues with AAFCO, FDA etc. Our evening was truly enjoyable with great food and fellowship with kindred spirits in the pet industry at the new, huge warehouse in Des Plaines of Zeus & Company. Congratulations David Levy. Only problem was when Tim Peterson asked for ketchup for his Chicago Coney Dog. Apparently this is highly frowned upon in Chicago and David felt the need to bring over a group of good looking, strong arms to “kick his butt”. Too funny! Tim found some ketchup anyway. I was reminded again, how wonderful it is to be in the pet industry. For the most part, the people are passionate about providing products that are beneficial to the pets and their parents. We are blessed to be a part of it.
