About Petland
Starting operations in 1967 in Ohio, Petland sells pets and pet-related merchandise to consumers throughout the United States, Canada, Japan, France, Chile and Israel. Each Petland location sells fish, birds, cats, dogs, small animals, reptiles and the food and accessories needed to care for them.
The total investment necessary to begin operation of a new PetlandĀ®
franchise is between $300,500 and $1,065,500. This total investment, for
new franchises, includes amounts ranging from $117,500 to $352,500 that
must be paid to the franchisor.
The initial total development does not
include Real Estate purchase or lease expenses or costs (except for a
lease deposit). To develop more than one PetlandĀ® store, you must enter
into an Area Development Agreement. Development fees for area
development agreements are $40,000 for the first store plus $20,000 for
each additional store you commit to open under your development schedule
(these amounts will be credited against the payment of your initial
franchise fees). By way of example, for a two-store area development
agreement, the total investment is between $61,500 to $65,000, of which
$60,000 that must be paid to the franchisor.
