![]() I used to live up there for 6 years. The only pet store up there (at the time, I believe there is a dog/cat food/grooming store up there now) was overpriced to say the least. And you know what? That's perfectly okay! I understand rent is high and the cost of staff is also, but both the management and staff in there were absolutely horrendous. The manager/owner was the most rude person in the store if you can believe it.
Yes, you have a huge market for a store up there. Especially if you have even a small idea about what customer service is. The customer isn't always right, but when they are wrong there's no need to tell them what an idiot they are! LOL ![]() BTW There was at one time a lady who opened up a fish store out of her house in Thickwood or Timberlea. She didn't do too well and closed down less than a year after she opened. I can't remember the name of her store at the moment, sorry. |

![]() +++++1 Lol when I asked where her liverock was from she refused to tell me. She also wouldn't tell me where her absolutely minimal livestock was from, like I was going to contact her supplier and cut her out of the deal.

![]() the reason there isnt a large backing of people up here is because there isnt a quality pet store to help build the hobby.with a population of 110,000 which is set to double in 5 years there is a huge opportunity. i think someone would have to start it out of thier basdment and slowly grow the backing. after that, move into a small commercial space.
