Many decades ago, there was a little boy who on seeing a brightly coloured fish in the aquarium of the zoo in Slovakia started dreaming a big dream.
What dreams are made of
In 1988 the boy had become a young man who started his own business in aquarium products. This was soon followed by the opening of a first shop.
Expansion
As the Slovakian pet market matured, so the company grew, becoming market leader in the distribution of a wide range of not only aquarium, but also of pet products. An own product line was soon launched, followed by international expansion into the Czech Republic and Poland. In 2008, TATRAPET exhibited at Interzoo for the first time.
