OHMYPET! EXPO: How Malaysia’s Pet Scene Just Got a Major Upgrade

Pet events like OHMYPET! EXPO does more than just fill a weekend; it acts as a catalyst for the entire industry. Recognised as Malaysia’s Largest Pet Trade Show by the Malaysia Book of Records, OHMYPET! EXPO provides a vital platform for local and international industry players to connect, collaborate, and expand their business network.

OHMYPET! EXPO bridges the gap between “just owning a pet” and “lifestyle integration,” pushing the market to evolve in three significant ways:

From “Products” to “Experiences”

Historically, the pet industry was about basic needs: kibble, collars, and cages. Instead, pet expos shift the focus to shared experiences.

The Trend:

Modern pet parents (especially Gen Z and Millennials) value memories over “stuff.”

The Impact:

OHMYPET! features interactive zones, pet fashion shows, agility contests, obedience trials, and entertainment for pets and families alike. These activities create high-energy environments where pets and owners bond. This expo drives demand for “lifestyle” products—like pet-friendly travel gear, “human-grade” treats, and tech gadgets—transforming the market from a commodity business into a premium service economy.

High-Speed Innovation & Feedback

Large expos are the “testing grounds” for the next big thing.

Direct Access:

Brands get real-time feedback from thousands of users in one weekend.

The Innovation Loop:

The expo’s consumer segment is a one-stop destination for pet enthusiasts to explore the latest offerings in pet care, nutrition, accessories, technology, and services. Seeing hundreds of brands in one space (from AI-powered feeders to sustainable, eco-friendly litter) forces local businesses to “level up.” When a local start-up sees a global brand’s latest innovation at OHMYPET!, it sets a new bar for what Malaysian pet owners expect, accelerating the pace of local innovation.

Professionalising the Community

An expo of this scale serves as a B2B powerhouse.

Networking: It connects local retailers with international suppliers and artisans.

Education:

OHMYPET! also provides insightful talks by veterinarians, nutritionists, groomers, trainers, and business experts focusing on various topics.

By hosting expert-led talks on responsible ownership and animal welfare, these events educate the consumer. A more informed pet owner is more likely to invest in high-quality healthcare, specialised nutrition, and professional grooming, which naturally boost revenue and standards across the entire industry.

OHMYPET! is the Launchpad for the New Pet Era

OHMYPET! EXPO is setting the benchmark as the premier pet industry event in the country. The expo is designed to serve both B2C (Business-to-Consumer) and B2B (Business-to-Business) audiences, offering unparalleled opportunities to showcase products, foster collaborations, and drive innovation within Malaysia’s rapidly growing pet industry.

These events make the “hidden” pet economy visible and prestigious. By bringing over 150,000 visitors together (as seen in past editions), OHMYPET! proves to investors and the public that the pet industry is a significant economic force, not just a niche hobby.

Organised annually by Truffle & Lemon Expo Sdn Bhd, OHMYPET! EXPO serves as the ultimate business and consumer platform for the rapidly growing pet market in Malaysia and across Southeast Asia.
