Pets at Home is investing more than £470, 000 in a new store on Clwyd Retail Park in Rhyl, creating 19 new jobs.

It will open on February 22 on the site of a former Comet, and Pets at Home said it was committed to recruiting from the local area.

Rhyl manager Hannah Radcliff has been with the company for more than five years, having previously worked in Warrington.

Hannah said: “I'm delighted to be opening our new store in Rhyl. It will offer everything a pet owner could wish for, all under one roof. We will provide plenty of advice and ideas for customers and we welcome pets of all shapes and sizes.

“We will also have a groom room, offering full grooming, bath and blow dry, puppy grooming and nail clipping, which are all important to a pet’s health and wellbeing.”
