North Wales pet retailer has opened new headquarters following a pandemic sales boom

A leading pet retailer has opened new headquarters following a pandemic sales boom.

PetPlace – which has stores in Abergele, Ruthin, Mold, Llangefni and Chirk – has joined Tir Llwyd Enterprise Park in Kinmel Bay.

The company, which recently celebrated its 50th anniversary, will be based out of a 10,000 sq ft office and warehouse facility.

Managing director Sion Pritchard said: “As a company we have grown and grown over the past few years, and that growth has accelerated since the onset of the pandemic.”

He added: “Tir Llwyd in Kinmel Bay is the perfect place for us; central and easily accessible, we are delighted to join the community of long-established and successful organisations already based here.

“It is also less than a stone’s throw from the distribution hub that handles PetPlace’s online orders, so it’s a win-win situation for us.”

Chester and St Asaph-based BA Commercial handled the transaction on behalf of site owners Pure Residential and Commercial.

Director Fraser Crewe said: “We are delighted to have worked in partnership with PetPlace to secure this move. The site is easily accessible from the A55 and meets their distribution requirements while also giving them a central North Wales base.”
