| Petland I was on Petland's website and found this: The Petland Franchise Opportunity The Pet Market Is Big Business With these growing pet ownership statistics, it’s no wonder that the future of the pet industry has enormous profit potential. The pet industry is a multi-billion industry. At present, the pet industry is dominated by small, independent retailers and a few large impersonal chain stores that feature pet foods, discounted supplies and few or no pets. These large corporate stores offer little, if any, personalized service to the new or experienced animal or tropical fish enthusiast. The merchandise and pets offered at a majority of the small independent stores reflect the interests of the pet store owner rather than the needs of customers. Many limit offerings to one type of pet. And this limits the possibility of sales to customers who own a variety of pets. Unfortunately for pet owners, the majority of these independent pet retailers lack expertise in animal care, merchandising techniques, financial planning and marketing of their business. The pet retail business is technically complex, and attempting the business without specific training and proven operational systems leads to the very expensive process of trial and error. Serving the needs of our customers with only the best in quality pets and pet supplies is what Petland is all about. And for more than 35 years, Petland Pet Counselors have been striving to meet the challenge of our mission. Petland stores are located in more than 30 states and 5 foreign countries. The Franchise Opportunity For You When you are granted a Petland franchise license, you get more than a sign on the door. Petland is more than just a name. From the initial financing package you present to your bank, to the quarterly specials and private-label products Petland provides, Petland works with its strategic partners to make their work easier, their customers happier, and their potential profits higher. And to help ensure your store’s success, Petland offers such special services as site location and lease negotiation, design and construction, financial services, training, advertising and direct mail, private labeling, an extensive distribution network and field operations support and communications. Whatever your needs, Petland is right there with you, from helping in selecting your site, to helping maintain traffic flow long past the opening of your store. AND MY FAVORITE QUOTE "Fixtures are designed to meet the needs of the animals to be housed, and the Petland associates who will care for them... while giving maximum consideration to proper merchandising so all pets are presented from their best vantage point."
