Pet Supplies Plus
Pet Supplies "Plus" Franchise Information:
Most of our stores are located in shopping centers with other high-traffic, convenience oriented retailers. Due to our smaller stores sizes and efficient business model, we are able to enter smaller markets that may have little or no competition, but our stores compete effectively in major metro areas, as well.

Although each store is independently owned, our franchisees benefit from the buying power of over 240 stores, which assures our owners the best cost of goods available. We have developed solid relationships with some of the leading manufacturers in the pet industry, so our franchise partners can offer their retail customers fantastic values on all their Pet Supply needs.Our Franchisees
Our store owners come from all walks of life… doctors, lawyers, grocers, retired business people, entrepreneurs looking to open their first store, corporate executives… all looking to start their own business with a well respected company with a proven business model. We provide an extensive training program for our franchise partners.
Over 2/3 of our franchisees have grown their business by opening multiple Pet Supplies Plus locations, which speaks not only to their success at store level, but to their continued confidence in our franchise program.

Our Company
Pet Supplies "Plus" opened their first store in Redford, Michigan in 1988. We pioneered the concept of bringing "supermarket style" retailing to the Pet Supply category. As we have continued to grow over the past 20 years, we have remained true to our original concept: To create clean, attractive stores that offer pet owners great values, exceptional service, and a fun place to shop. Every year, more than 1.8 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. Even though our stores are smaller, we carry the same extensive item selection as the larger warehouse style superstores.Our efficient third party distribution system with twice per week deliveries at most locations, provide our franchisees with greater item selection at reduced inventory levels. Our smaller store sizes significantly reduce our start-up costs, inventory, occupancy and other operating costs, which in turn lower the profit threshold for our stores.
