Jollyes has announced that its new store in Scunthorpe, which is set to open on 24 March, will be the first Jollyes to include a Jolly Groomer.
The retailer announced a £1m investment last week aimed at expanding the company’s vet and grooming output.
The new store will include ‘Wash and Go’ dog-wash booths which will be available for just £5
Customers can choose precisely what grooming service they need, so they don’t pay for ones they don’t, prices for a bath and brush will start at £15
Between now and the summer of 2024, Jollyes plans to double the number of stores that offer community pet clinics, double opening hours for those clinics and double the number of dog grooming locations at stores like Scunthorpe.
Kerry Midgely, regional manager, said: “We’ve started work today getting the store ready for opening later in the week. We plan to open our doors on Friday 24 March for the first time and then have our formal grand opening at 10.15am on Saturday 25 March. We can’t wait to show off our flagship store.”
Jollyes also announced that it will be teaming up with Jerry Green Dog Rescue to raise funds for the charity’s vital work in North Lincolnshire.
Jerry Green Dog Rescue will be fundraising at the store over its opening weekend giving customers the chance to sponsor a kennel.
Amber Satterthwaite, community fundraiser for Jerry Green Dog Rescue, added: “For over 60 years Jerry Green Dog Rescue has rescued, cared for and rehomed over 40,000 dogs in need of a second chance.
“With three centres across Lincolnshire and Nottinghamshire as well as a community outreach programme in East Yorkshire, we continue to provide a safe place for homeless dogs and to seek new loving places for them to live.”
She continued: “We are delighted to be working with Jollyes and look forward to seeing you on Saturday 25th March 2023. We hope you can come along, have some fun and help us raise some pounds for our pouches. Your support will help us transform the lives of rescue dogs in need of care.”
The new store is part of Jollyes’ ambitious expansion plans which will see it hit £100 million turnover in FY2023, employ 1,000 staff this year and have 100 stores within 18 months.
