BUSINESS DESCRIPTION
 
These premises have traded as a pet shop for many years, and indeed it is the only business of its type for many miles around. As the local population is relatively small there is no likelihood of a threat from an out of town ‘Pet’ supermarket. The owners focus on supplies domestic pets, wild birds, tropical and cold water fish; there are some agricultural and equestrian products but this is not the main thrust of the business.

They offer food ‘stuffs’, accessories, toys, medication, enclosures etc, many products are purchased in bulk and repacked in small quantities. Licensed for small pet sales (rodents in particular, hamsters, guinea pigs, rats, mice etc.) and both tropical and cold water fish. Mostly the products are purchased via wholesalers. They have a particular focus on garden ponds, supplying liners, pumps etc; previously they have offered pond plants etc.

This is a traditional pet shop that holds an excellent reputation and is patronised by locals and local villages.
