“We know there’s a demand for additional physical locations, based on the extensive research we do and the continued growth of pet,” continues Arsenault. “Pet parents are looking for a strong pet bricks and mortar offering, a place they can come in with their pets and truly be serviced along with doing things like weighing their pet, trying samples, asking for advice from our knowledgeable staff, having fittings for harnesses, collars or clothing, and socializing with other pet folks and their pups.”
“Ren’s has truly transformed into an omnichannel powerhouse,” shares Larissa Wasyliw, VP of Ecommerce & Marketing at Ren’s Pets. “We’ve seen our ecommerce business grow extraordinarily, but know our stores are just as important to our customers.”
“There are already a lot of Ren’s Rewards members in the Orillia area that shop with us now in our current stores or on the website,” said Wasyliw. “We can’t wait to show these pet parents that Ren’s is here for your pet’s best life, providing premium food, treats, and toys in their own Ren’s store in their Orillia community."
