Pets Choice has opened its first factory outlet store in Blackburn called Pet Range.

The company has been based in Blackburn for 37 years, currently employing over 360 people and supplying partners in the pet specialty, grocery, independent retail, e-commerce, and veterinary sectors with high-quality products in various formats. 

The move to in-store retailing is seen as an exciting step for the Pets Choice team with its growing portfolio creating more jobs in the area. 

Tony Raeburn, CEO of Pets Choice, said: “We have been building our presence in Blackburn for many years and are a major employer in the town.

“Opening a store is a great way to raise our profile and help reduce waste by selling our loved brands to the community at outlet prices.

“It was always my plan to have a store for food, treats and toys, and visitors should expect to see discounts every time they come. We have so many fantastic brands in the Pets Choice family, shoppers - and their pets - are going to be spoiled for choice.”
