Markham, Ontario (Canada) — Canadian specialty pet retailer Pet Valu is marking its 50th anniversary. Pet Valu opened the doors of its first store in Toronto in 1976, with a commitment to helping pets live healthy, happy and active lives. Today, Pet Valu has grown to more than 800 locally owned and operated stores across Canada and this commitment remains the same.
“Pet Valu has had the privilege of being part of so many memorable moments over the past 50 years,” says Greg Ramier, CEO at Pet Valu. “As we mark this milestone anniversary, we are bringing our 50-year story to life by celebrating the love, care and connections we have shared with so many Canadians and their pets.”
The Pet Valu family of brands includes Pet Valu®, Chico ®, Bosley’s by Pet Valu®, Paulmac’s Pets®, Total Pet® and Tisol®. Each store carries a wide variety of pet nutrition, treats, toys and essentials including an extensive range of quality made-in-Canada products and Canadian brands.
“For half a century, Canadian pet parents have turned to Pet Valu for convenience, compassion, quality, value and expertise. Whether they drop into one of our stores to ask a question, do their weekly shop or simply say hello to one of our Animal Care Experts, we have shared so many meaningful moments together,” says Ramier. “Through our anniversary celebrations we want to thank everyone who has been part of our journey for their trust and support.”
