The Pet Hut links with PDSA as 100th store opens
 |
Claiming to be the UK's fastest-growing pet retailer, The Pet Hut has celebrated a milestone with the opening of its 100th store...
The discount chain, which is owned by Poundstretcher, has also partnered with veterinary charity PDSA in order to give customers access to its animal expertise.
The move will see PDSA's free PetCheck programme introduced at a number of its stores, with veterinary nurses giving free wellbeing checks to dogs from vans and offering care advice for other pets.
The Pet Hut also plans to provide information points in all its stores to offer help and advice to shoppers on how to look after their animals.
To mark the alliance, the retailer is pledging to raise over £50,000 for the charity over the coming year, with a fundraising drive in all outlets.
The Pet Hut's 100th store opened in Chesterfield on Friday in a programme that has seen the business expand by 25 stores in the last nine months.
The Pet Hut and Poundstretcher managing director Ian York said: "This is an exciting partnership for both us at The Pet Hut and for PDSA as, as we grow our business, the more opportunities there will be to raise money for their excellent cause.
"Our stores are opening across the UK every single month, with our 100th store a real flagship moment for us.
