Heather, Sherwood Park AB

As a Global Pet Foods franchisee, we have the freedom to make our own decisions – we have control over our inventory, product mix, and the distributors we deal with.

I find it so rewarding that we are able to help pet owners find solutions to the issues that their pets are facing.

Heather, Sherwood Park AB

Before opening our store in 2016, we did lots of research on available franchises. We had decided to focus on the retail pet industry as we felt like it would be the most recession-resistant which has only proven itself through the COVID19 pandemic. Global Pet Foods stood above any other franchise by being 100% Canadian owned, having an exclusive partnership with Air Miles, and 45 years of franchising means that we have a proven business strategy.

If I could go back in time and choose any franchise, I’d pick Global Pet Foods all over again.

Marco, King City ON

The best things about being a Global Pet Foods franchisee is having the ability to help owners with the issues their pets may have. I love being able to meet lots of different people and their animals daily.

Helping new and experienced pet owners resolve issues with their pets and being able to see/hear about the results has been the most rewarding experience.

Being a Canadian owned franchise mixed with my love of pets made the decision easy to open a Global Pet Foods. I would do it all over again.

Being a Global Pet Foods franchisee allows me to have my own business, but also have the support, direction, brand recognition and expertise from a larger organization, to grow faster and become more profitable. We have strong brand recognition, exceptional customer service and unique products that encourage customers to choose our stores to shop in.

Every day, coming to work is rewarding. Our customers love us, love shopping for their pets and we have lots of opportunities to meet their furry family member. As a pet lover who is passionate about health, I’m proud to be able to educate customers about how to improve the health of their pet. We have staff that are passionate, knowledgeable, and they offer clear expertise to help customers find the right solutions for their pets’ needs

I think Global Pet Foods is a fantastic opportunity and I would definitely choose to do it again. We are a very clear leader in this industry in Canada, with lots of market share and growth opportunities. Owning multiple locations allows me to be an entrepreneur, not just a business owner. It allows me to grow and develop relationships with suppliers, manufacturers, and the brand at a greater level. This franchise allows me to fulfill my desire to create a system of stores rather than just be an owner-operator.
