Petshop Science - where every day is Pet Day

In its relentless pursuit of value in a category dominated by specialist vet stores, Petshop Science has increased sales by 56.9% during its interim period (the 26 weeks ended 29 December 2024). Amidst the country's booming pet economy, with over 22 million pets on which consumers spend at estimated R8 billion annually, the Shoprite Group became the first local supermarket retailer to sell pet insurance in 2020, followed by the launch of standalone pet shops in 2021. "We saw a gap in the market to democratise pet care by making premium pet food and other veterinary-approved essentials available at supermarket prices," explains Willem Hunlun, Chief Operating Officer at the Group. "Customers continue to vote with their feet and wallets, and there is no doubt that our unwavering commitment to value has been instrumental in the rapid growth of Petshop Science. We are firmly on track to become the biggest pet business in South Africa."
