Pet Valu operates in Canada as a pet food and accessory retailer with small, community-focused stores across Ontario, Manitoba, and Western Canada. The stores stock pet foods, toys, treats, and care items, offering convenient, neighborhood shopping for pet owners. Growth has come from openings and acquisitions, such as the 2010 purchase of Bosley’s Pet Foods Plus, and the company went public on the TSX in 2021 to reduce debt and fund further expansion. Its goal is to expand its Canadian store network and strengthen its brand by growing the footprint and diversifying its retail network, supported by private equity backing and a public listing.
