On August 11-14, 2001, Sadie's Choice participated in the 13th Uniquely Ontario Creative Arts Show as part of the Toronto International Gift Fair.

Competing against over 50 entries, Jodie Nowack, co-founder of Sadie's Choice won the Young Entrepreneur award for best booth design.

"This was our very first trade show.  It gave us the unique opportunity to display our Sadie's Choice pet products to the wholesale market and gain valuable insight.  Winning the Young Entrepreneur award gave us the extra confidence a new company needs! I just wish Sadie could have been here with us!" -Jodie Nowack
