Ren's Pets is expanding its presence in York Region with new stores opening in Newmarket and Stouffville this spring.
On June 18, a 5,900-square foot store will open at 17820 Yonge St. in Newmarket, beside the Moore's and near Staples and Home Depot.
The Stouffville store will open one month before that on May 7, at 1050 Hoover Park Dr., beside the Reitman's and near Walmart and Canadian Tire. It will be a 8,100-square foot space.
‘We’re extremely excited to expand our Ren’s store network in this area, by our neighbouring store in Aurora. We know there is a passionate community of pet parents that know the Ren’s brand, and are looking to shop with us," said Larissa Wasyliw, vice-president of ecommerce and marketing for Ren's Pets.
The pet supply company currently has a store at 239 Earl Stewart Dr. in Aurora. This expansion will bring its selection of pet food, toys, clothes and other supplies to other parts of York Region.
Each store will have more than 8,000 products that customers can buy in store, order online for pickup, or get same-day delivery through Door Dash.
“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," said Scott Arsenault, CEO of Ren's Pets.
“We’re so excited to keep growing the Ren’s Pets brand and adding new stores in amazing communities that are passionate about pets,” he said. “We’ve had several years now of strong growth for our business, and we’re continuing that trend into 2022 with incredible new locations for our customers to visit.”
The new York Region locations are among five new stores that will open this Spring. Ren's Pets will also be opening in Orillia, Thunder Bay and Niagara Falls.
“There are already a lot of Ren’s Rewards members in our upcoming new markets of Orillia, Thunder Bay, Stouffville, Niagara Falls, and Newmarket 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 stores in their communities.”
The new locations, which will begin opening this April, will bring their total count to 43 stores across the country.
