The American Pet Products Association [1][2] (APPA) is a not-for-profit industry association founded in 1958 in Greenwich (Connecticut). APPMA represents more than 1000 pet product manufacturers, importers of pet products and suppliers of products for non-pet livestock as well.
APPMA supports the interests of its members through public policy, public affairs, and animal awareness. In 2008 it dropped the word Manufacturers from its name.[3]
The APPA organizes the Global Pet Expo annually. The 2012 expo featured 896 exhibitors.[4]
