Over 2/3 of US households today own pets, and their owners are spending more on them than ever before. Pet Supplies“Plus” has been franchising for over 17 years, and has become the largest specialty pet supply retailer in the nation, with over 230 stores in 22 states. The retail pet supply category has consistently been one of the fastest growing categories for all retail sales, and could reach $50 Billion by 2010. Our efficient business model allows our franchise partners to be successful in a variety of different markets types. Pet Supplies“Plus” opened their first store in Michigan in 1988. We pioneered the concept of bringing supermarket style retailing to the pet supply industry. As we have continued to grow over the last 20 years, we have remained true to our original concept: To create clean, attractive stores that offer pet owners great values and the best quality and assortment, all in a fun place to shop. Every year, more than 1.6 million dogs, cats and other pets visit Pet Supplies“Plus” with their owners. Our Stores– The average PSP store is 8,000 to 10,000 square feet… about half the size of our“big box” competitors. Our stores are bright, clean, well lit, and have uncluttered aisles that are easy to shop. Although our stores are smaller, we carry the same extensive item selection as the warehouse style superstores.
