Pet Supplies Plus Franchise Model Overview

Pet Supplies Plus stores are full-line pet retailers: pet food and supplies, live small animals, birds, reptiles and fish (no dogs or cats), plus grooming and self-serve wash services, run from a large leased retail box with wide aisles and a stocked back room. The customer is the everyday pet owner, and the franchisor's affiliate supplies 75% to 90% of inventory through its own distribution company, so the store operates as a node in a supply chain as much as a standalone shop. The investment is dominated by inventory, fixtures and equipment, and leasehold work, with a wide range depending on how much build-out the landlord covers. The royalty is unusually low for retail, offset by a sizable local-plus-national advertising requirement. The owner can run the store personally or delegate to a trained full-time key manager, and spouses sign personal guarantees. The system is large and roughly flat: about 500 franchised and 230 company-owned stores, with franchised count slipping slightly in 2025 and a steady flow of transfers each year.

Ideal owner profile

Retail operator comfortable managing inventory, merchandising and an hourly sales floor team
Capital for a mid-six to seven-figure build-out depending on landlord contribution
Owner-operator or hands-on principal with a trained full-time key manager in place
Willing to follow a 3,500-page operations manual and buy most product from the franchisor
Community-minded operator who will invest in local marketing and grooming services
