Typical Requirements
- The PET VALU franchise system requires the personal
involvement of the franchisee in the day to day operation
of the store. While it is possible to have a non-active
financial partner, the Operator of the franchise must own
a minimum of 25% of the voting shares of the franchisee
corporation.
- The total investment required will vary depending on many
factors, including the size of the store, necessary leasehold
improvements and equipment requirements, sales levels and
inventory requirements.
- A franchisee must have an acceptable level of education
(high school or beyond) as well as sufficient business
maturity and financial strength.
- A franchisee must have strong interpersonal and
communication skills, have a strong appreciation for
pets and enjoy dealing with the public.
- A franchisee must live within one hour's driving time
of the franchise outlet.
- A franchisee must be able to handle the physical demands
of operating a PET VALU store.
- The PET VALU system is the product of extensive research,
investigation and “trial and error” over a period of more than
20 years. The franchisee obtains the benefits of this experience,
but must be prepared to operate within the guidelines of the
system in order to preserve uniformity of operation, combined
purchasing strength and the other economies of a cohesive retail
chain.
