[The Financial News] Yuyu Pharma is seeking to expand its foothold in the North American pet market by highlighting its cat supplement brand. Its strategy is to engage directly with local consumers to raise awareness of its products and target the market with products specializing in cats' health and nutritional care.
 According to industry sources on the 14th, Yuyu Pharma's cat supplement brand Ari's Purrfect took part in CatCon 2026, held on the 10th and 11th at the Pasadena Convention Center in Pasadena, California, United States.
 Ari's Purrfect operated its own booth at the event and introduced two cat supplements launched in the North American market: Ari's Purrfect Dental Bite, for oral health care, and Ari's Purrfect Omega+Multivitamin Lickable, which contains omega ingredients and a multivitamin.
 Yuyu Pharma CEO Yoo Won-sang also visited the event in person and met with cat lovers and people in the pet industry. He set out to promote the brand by explaining the products' features and development direction to local consumers.
 First held in 2015, CatCon combines cat-related products with cultural content. The event features new-product displays, expert talks, opportunities to meet famous cats and influencers, hands-on programs, and adoption events, among other activities. Cumulative attendance has surpassed 100,000.
 Yuyu Pharma plans to use its participation in the event to expand its engagement with North American consumers and focus on raising brand awareness in the local market. Its strategy is to differentiate the brand by emphasizing a product-development approach that prioritizes cats' characteristics and nutritional needs.
 CEO Yoo said, “Ari's Purrfect develops products based on its ‘Feline First’ philosophy, which prioritizes cats' characteristics and nutritional needs,” adding, “Taking part in this event gave us an opportunity to broaden our engagement with U.S. consumers and raise brand awareness in the local market.”
