Ren’s Pets Continues Expansion with New Store Opening in Hamilton

[Hamilton, ON, Sept 25, 2020] – Ren’s Pets, a specialty retailer of pet supplies, will open its newest retail store in Hamilton, Ontario on Saturday, September 26. The 7500sq ft new build store is located at 2120 Rymal Road East in the Canadian Tire plaza and marks the company’s 31st store.

“We’ve had a great customer response to the Ren’s brand in the area with Ancaster and Burlington, so we’re excited to open a new store in Hamilton next,” said Scott Arsenault, President at Ren’s Pets. “This has been another exceptional year for new store growth at Ren’s. With COVID-19, we were a bit delayed in a few markets but we’ll open five new stores this year, after opening five stores last year.”

The Hamilton store features over 7,000 products with aisles of high-quality dog & cat food, freezers for raw & frozen pet food, displays of treats & toys, plus a special grooming section.

“At Ren’s, we are extremely passionate about pets and want to show our customers that we’re here for your pet’s best life,” said Arsenault. “We stock the best brands in pet food, from Acana, GO SOLUTIONS, NOW FRESH, to Royal Canin, along with the top treats like Benny Bully’s and Greenies, and toys like Kong.”

“We’re also here to support local humane societies, charities, and rescues along with getting to know the local groomers and pet professionals in town,” continues Arsenault. “We’ve been a long time partner of the Hamilton SPCA, and recently sponsored their Wiggle Waggle Walk.”

“Even with increasing online sales, we see the value and importance of having bricks-and-mortar locations in local communities to support our pet parents,” said Larissa Wasyliw, VP of Ecommerce & Marketing at Ren’s Pets. “We really want to share our carry out culture, knowledgeable team members, exceptional service and quality products with a great in-store experience to complement any online experiences.”

Ren’s will open one additional store this year in Sudbury, Ontario, with plans for more expansion in 2021 in additional locations in Ontario and the Maritimes.
