What Pet Supplies Plus' 2025 FDD shows

  • 1
    In 2024, Pet Supplies Plus opened 28 new locations and closed 12. (Item 20.)
Pet Supplies Plus' franchise agreement is a 10-year commitment — and the FDD is the document that spells out exactly what you're signing up for.

You cannot change the FDD — and that's not the point. The point is to walk into your next conversation with Pet Supplies Plus knowing what you're agreeing to, so you ask the questions that matter most to you. We're not here to talk you out of anything — we're here to make sure your excitement is the clear-eyed kind.

Open Pet Supplies Plus' FDD in the Clearly Workspace — with Clara beside you.

The Workspace is where you and Clara review the FDD together. She's read every page, and she'll walk you through any of it — the basic questions, the ones you're not sure are smart, the ones keeping you up at night. No judgment, ever. Ask her what a royalty really costs you, whether you could sell one day, what happens if you get sick — anything.

It's the smart first step before you sign, or before you spend on an attorney: get into the Workspace for $49, get to know the FDD, then save the legal fees for the parts you want to discuss with your attorney. Ask Clara as many questions as you want for 30 days — there's no limit, and no question is too small.

We're not paid if you sign a franchise agreement. We're here to help you understand it before you do.
