Brand Summary
The Dog Stop® offers an excellent opportunity to help you achieve your goals and become part of the multi-billion-dollar pet care industry with a franchisor who is there to support and guide you every step of the way. The Dog Stop® has established a franchise business model that positions us to be the best franchisor in the industry. Our growth plan allows us to give our franchisees the attention they deserve on an ongoing basis, not just during the franchise development process. To provide a complete franchise service program, The Dog Stop Franchising has assembled a team of executives and management personnel with over 100 years of experience building and SUPPORTING franchise programs. We are the only one-stop shop in the franchise industry which means convenience for customers and multiple revenue streams for our franchisees.
We are looking for people that have a passion for dogs but are not crazy dog people. This is only a flexible ownership business, as we do not allow for owner-operators. The franchisee will hire with our help a full-time GM that runs the business’s day-to-day operations. There will be a few full-time assistant managers as well.
The Dog Stop is a high-revenue, high-margin business, and is an extremely fast-growing, recession-resistant business model. We started in 2009 and have seen nothing but year-over-year growth since.
