National pet supply retailer Petsense has completed construction and is preparing to open its 100th location, a 5000-square-foot retail space in Athens, Tennessee. The new location will cap a nearly decade-long streak of expansion and help set the stage for even faster growth over the next five years, according to the company.
"It's been a tremendous nine years for Petsense; from our beginnings in our Scottsdale office when we had a notebook of ideas but zero stores, to our current footprint across America, we've been very fortunate to connect with millions of pet owners who have helped propel us forward," said President and CEO Bob Angstead. "I am proud to say that in what can generously be described as a tough macroeconomic environment, Petsense has consistently been a market leader in store count growth, overall sales growth and comparable store sales growth."
