According to a report from the Pet Food Manufacturers Association, South West England has the highest percentage of cat ownership in the UK at 21% of households, against a national average of 17%, with dog ownership at 25%, on a par with the national level. And Bristol was this year rated one of the UK’s most pet-friendly cities and was among the most dog-friendly for its pubs and restaurants and access to nearby countryside.

Matt Godwin, regional manager for Jollyes in the south of England, said: “People in the west of England love their pets and over the years we’ve built up a solid bond with our customers here in Bristol and beyond.

“We’re looking forward to reaching out to more customers here with new stores at Warmley and Congresbury and a new state-of-the-art store at Brislington. Together, they’ll give us the best offer we’ve ever had for pet owners in and around Bristol.”

In the year ahead, Jollyes expects to open new stores through both the targeted strategic acquisition of smaller pet retailers and taking on new leases across Great Britain and Northern Ireland.

From modest beginnings in Enfield as a single store in 1971, the company currently has nearly 70 locations around the UK.
