Description

IBPSA is proud to announce the 2026 Pet Care Business Excellence Awards — The IBBYs — a special evening celebrating excellence across the pet care industry.

Join us on October 9th from 6:00–8:00 PM at the Schaumburg Convention Center in Schaumburg, Illinois for an intimate gathering of industry leaders, innovators, and champions of pet care.
