More companies join up.
A manufacturer of equestrian coats, an equine nutritionist and two retailers are among the latest businesses to swell the British Equestrian Trade Association’s (BETA’s) ranks.
The trade body represents equestrian retailers, manufacturers, distributors and related suppliers, and acts in the interests of horsey consumers.
Applicants are scrutinised by existing members on the BETA Council, before approval is granted or refused.
Once accepted to join, member companies are entitled to use the BETA logo – the sign of a reputable equestrian company.
