Pets at Home reaches £1 billion in retail revenue for the first time
With total group sales of £1.1 bn ($1.56 bn), the UK retailer grew 7.9% compared to the year before.
While their revenue grew, the total number of transactions declined by 4.9% to 60 million.
They saw strong growth in subscription customers and their loyalty clubs saw record periods of new customer registration.
One of the keys to acquiring new customers have been their 452 stores across the UK, as a one-stop-shop for pet owners.
Over the next 18 months, Pets at Home will invest over £20m in further digitising their business through “Polestar”, an initiative to create a seamless pet care experience for customers using a digital interface.
