Pets Market started operating in Saltcoats, North Ayrshire late 2008 by acquiring a previous pet store within the Indoor market in the same town.  There had been a pet supply store within this market from its inception around 20 years beforehand.  The 2 previous owners had been successful in that environment however did not expand.

Present owner Mr Scott Mould decided that despite a global recession, it was obvious there was a need to expand this business in order to meet the needs of the local community of the 3 Towns Area of Ardrossan, Saltcoats & Stevenston, and the surrounding areas.  In October 2009 a new unit was acquired at 31 Hamilton Street, Saltcoats.  This was on the main shopping street but within 500 yds of the Indoor Market and as such existing customers of the previous 20 years or so would not have to travel far.  The new store is 5 times the size of the market store and as such the range increased massively.  The store now stocks a vast range of the following top selling brands, and unlike the Supermarkets, can order anything you need.  As well as the brands listed below we also stock a massive variety of other foods, bedding, leads, collars, fashion, coats and toys for all your pet needs.  We also stock frozen and live foods for lizards and snakes.

Scott says “There was a massive demand within the area for a pet supplies business with a can do attitude to customer service and supply.  I have 20+ years of retail management and senior management positions and know that without a doubt you can only succeed by providing your customers with what they want at a reasonable cost.  We have a very positive attitude to customer enquires.  The pet supplies market is huge and its impossible to stock everything, however, IF WE DON’T HAVE IT WE’LL GET IT! and at a price you can trust – on top of that we will even deliver it FREE!  What more can you ask?  We have grown this local business by listening and responding to our customers needs and meeting them and look forward to doing the same for many years to come”

A delivery van was purchased by the new owner and this too was branded with the Pets Market livery that matched the store, and indeed this website.  Delivery of all items purchased within the store (or online) can be delivered FREE OF CHARGE within the 3 Towns area.  We also deliver to West Kilbride every Thursday.  This is also a FREE SERVICE.  Delivery elsewhere is not a problem – just ask instore or give us a call.

Pets Market online is another way of reaching out beyond the local area and supplying further afield.  Please feel free to call us on 01294-608212 or email us at info@pets-market.co.uk with any enquiry you may have.
