The pet care and veterinary sectors are experiencing growth through major international trade fairs and events. In Spain, the professional pet industry fair formerly known as Iberzoo Propet is rebranding as Iberpet to reflect the sector’s focus on internationalization and business. The Iberpet event, scheduled for March 2027 in Madrid, has already reserved 90% of its exhibition space.

Additionally, Spain is set to host the European Dog Show 2027, a joint event between Alicante and Murcia expected to host over 10,000 dog registrations. In Paraguay, the fourth edition of ExpoVet in Asunción is projected to generate approximately USD 19.5 million in business, hosting 50 companies and over 4,000 professionals.
