CESAR Restaurant Weekend Links Dogs & Owners to Pet-Friendly Eateries

— August 13, 2024 — Marketing
Building on the partnership announced earlier this year that saw Mars Petcare and Tripadvisor launch a pet-friendly travel hub, Mars' brand CESAR announced the first-ever CESAR Restaurant Weekend.

According to the Mars 2023 Pets Connect Us Report, only 20% of pet owners in the United States and Canada say their neighborhood offers pet-friendly restaurants and cafes, and CESAR Canine Cuisine's inaugural CESAR Restaurant Weekend aims to connect pets and their owners with pet-friendy eateries.

At the tail-end of one of the most popular restaurant weeks in the US, this event is launching to treat four-legged guests to a CESAR Mini-Pouch, tableside belly rubs, and swag-filled dog bags with food bowls, bandanas and more.
