We started Pro Feed to provide pet owners with better choices for their beloved pet's nutritional needs. And, based on the exceptionally positive response of our loyal customers, veterinarians, pet owner clubs and associations, we created the Pro Feed Pet Nutrition Center Franchise. We're in the business of educating people about the nutritional needs of the pets they love, and now we are looking for entrepreneurs that want to join our franchise team.
It's a simple value proposition… operate a high quality pet nutrition center, help your neighbors and friends make good decisions when caring for their pets, and enjoy the benefits of a successful business. Becoming a PNC franchise owner just may be the most rewarding investment you'll ever make.

We will provide you with everything you need to be successful as a Pro Feed franchisee. Unlike some other franchises, a Pro Feed franchise is turn-key so that you can hit the ground running. We do this so that you can run the best pet nutrition center in your area.
All of the essential components you need for a successful Pro Feed Pet Nutrition Center are provided, including:
At Pro Feed we know how important it is to get a good lease, so we take supporting you in this effort very seriously. The location for any franchise is one of the most important considerations and all too often franchise companies leave it up to you, yet many would-be franchisees have little or no experience working with retail leasing companies or negotiating leases. We provide lease negotiation terms and review the lease to provide you input and insight based on our experience. We make sure your franchise is designed to operate for one or more decades from the very beginning, and work with you along the way to ensure this opportunity.
PNC store locations are strategically placed in the exact locations near our demographically profiled consumers who are the most likely to become PNC customers. Before any site can be approved for a Pro Feed PNC it must be thoroughly analyzed through our Site Selection Package (“SSP”). The SSP conducts a comprehensive demographic, economic and industry analysis, then compares it to our existing store information so we can determine if the proposed site meets our approval criteria. Opening a franchise in a location that you “feel” is good is not good enough for a Pro Feed PNC. We take no shortcuts on site selection because we want every franchisee to have the best possible opportunity for success.
We take care of the entire marketing effort, from the moment you sign the franchise agreement until your store has been open for 90-days. Launching a franchise is a complex undertaking: working with the contractor, hiring employees and establishing the business requires your attention and discipline. That's why we take care of the entire marketing effort, from the moment you sign the franchise agreement until your store has been open for 90-days. Our grand opening package includes your press release, a direct mail campaign and local advertising and promotions to make sure your new customers know you're there. From then on, we'll support you with ongoing marketing plans, promotions and ideas.
We train you and your employees for the best customer experience! Imagine this scenario, you're in a store and have a question about a product. When you finally find an employee, you ask them your question and are not only disappointed by their unknowledgeable answer, but are also confronted with general unfriendliness and apathy. This will never happen at a Pro Feed PNC. The Pro Feed Training Program is designed to ensure our franchisees and employees have the knowledge and capability to respond to customers in a professional, friendly and compelling way. All employees at each Pro Feed PNC must successfully complete the Pro Feed Pet Nutritionist Certification Program before even taking a step onto the retail floor. They must also maintain their certification through ongoing training and development. Pro Feed employees aren't just retail clerks who only know how to run the cash register because we know our customers repeatedly visit us for our good advice for their beloved pets.
The Pro Feed Online Franchise System runs 24/7 to provide you with access to just about anything needed to run the PNC successfully. The online system manages your employee training and scheduling, interfaces with your Point-of-Sale system to manage your inventory, track your performance and compare it to other stores in the system to alert you to “gaps” that need your attention. The online system gives you the ability to engage with your customers through loyalty programs, marketing campaigns and referral programs. This powerful technology gives franchisees a cutting edge system that creates efficiency and promotes cost savings, and maximizes time with customers and employees instead of being stuck in an office running reports
