SAN DIEGO — Petco will open 13 new stores across the country and relocate one store in Paso Robles, Calif., in September. In addition, the company will also transition 31 existing Unleashed by Petco stores to smaller format stores this month.
The rebranding of 31 select Unleashed by Petco stores are located primarily in Colorado, Georgia and Texas. The stores will transition to smaller format Petco stores. In addition, based on consumer feedback and demand, UnleashedbyPetco.com will become an informational site for consumers, with all online product sales moving to Petco.com.
The former Unleashed by Petco locations will continue to operate as smaller format Petco stores and will include most of the same brands, products and amenities — such as self-serve dog wash and dog training services — that are available under the Unleashed by Petco banner.
Petco operates more than 1,470 Petco and Unleashed by Petco locations across the U.S., Mexico and Puerto Rico.
