This pet salon has been grooming South Orange County dogs for over 4 years. Their services include grooming, bathing, and brushing, as well as upsells such as ear cleaning, nail clipping, and deshedding. They are in an excellent location, in an affluent, beachside community. The salon's design has a decorator's touch. It is clean and organized, and the equipment is well-maintained and in fantastic condition. It is in a standalone building on a high-visibility, high traffic thoroughfare with plenty of private parking and easy access from both directions, a rarity in this area. This makes this salon, the perfect place to leave your beloved pet as you’re running around town. The building has distinctive, highly visible signage and features a full backyard. 

This salon’s full potential has never been tapped. It opened just before COVID, so never got the exposure that new businesses need to grow. Additionally, the owner has spent very little in advertising, so there are families throughout the community that could become customers if they were properly marketed to. Finally, the owner has been 100% absentee, relying on a part-time manager to operate the facility; nobody is dedicated to working ON the business.  

A new owner can step into a profitable customer base and grow this business. There is huge upside potential. First, open the shop every day, and for normal business hours. Next, the owner does very little advertising; introduce social media and market the business, and watch your pet count soar. Train the staff to upsell the additional services, host a weekly vet clinic, and turn the underutilized backyard into profit by offering dog training services.

This pet salon is a perfect opportunity for an energetic Buyer who is looking to enter or expand into the pet care space, and is willing to focus on the business. COVID increased pet ownership to an all-time high of 70% of U.S. households, so what are you waiting for? Reach out to the Agent today!
