Outstanding Opportunity in the
Lucrative Pet Franchising Industry

Pet Care Specialists has been providing  a range of  professional pet grooming & bathing services to its customers which are conveniently located in the nation's largest retailer. So great is the demand for our pet salons that we are now franchising our concept and creating a ground floor pet franchise opportunity for entrepreneurs to benefit from the explosive growth in the pet grooming industry.

Americans now spend in excess of $48 billion a year on their pets - more than the gross domestic product of all but 64 countries in the world. That's double the amount spent on pets a decade ago, with annual spending expected to hit $52 billion in the next two years, according to Packaged Facts, a consumer research company based in Rockville, MD. That puts the yearly cost of buying, feeding and caring for pets in excess of what Americans spend on toys and candy, the movies, playing video games and listening to recorded music combined. After consumer electronics, pet care is the fastest-growing category in retail, expanding about 6% a year.*

Once acquired as companions for children, pets are now equally popular with empty-nesters, single professionals and couples. What these different demographic groups have in common is a tendency to have time and resources to spare to care for their companion animals. About 63% of U.S. households, or 71 million homes, now own at least one pet, up from 64 million just five years ago.*

As a result, the pet industry has become the seventh largest retail segment in the United States. The number of certified groomers has failed to keep up with this continued growth and Pet Care Specialists intends to capture a significant portion of the estimated $2.9 billion in annual expenditures for pet-related services. Our franchisees can also participate in the $9.9 billion pet vitamin and over-the-counter pet drug market through pethealthcentersplus.com.

Partner with the fastest-growing grooming service located in the nation's largest retailer.
