Jollyes, which describes itself as the UK’s fast-growing pet retailer has announced its new store will be opening in May 2025 at Parc Fforestfach Retail Park.
The new store will employ 12 new members of staff including a store manager.
The new Swansea store is one of five locations announced to open this year in addition to plans to overhaul five existing stores as it continues its rapid growth.
In March it will open new stores in Pontefract, West Yorkshire and Chichester in West Sussex, followed by the Swansea store opening, a new Chesterfield store in Derbyshire and the relocation of one of its oldest stores in Perth to new premises in the town.
All five new locations will provide pet parents access to Jollyes’ raw food frozen ‘shop-in-shop’ and community pet clinics for essential vet services such as microchipping and vaccinations.
The Swansea store opening follows the launch of the chain’s Llanelli store at Parc Pemberton in December 2022, and will be the pet retailer’s seventh store in Wales.
Chief executive officer Joe Wykes said: “We understand how much joy a pet brings to families, but we also know the cost of that commitment is high, especially at a time when household budgets are under pressure from energy bills and mortgage payments.
“That’s why we’re simplifying our prices, so customers won’t need to be a member to get the value that pet parents demand.
“Being relentless in lowering prices to deliver on our promise to be the best value pet store in town is at the heart of our DNA and the promise we make to our customers.
“We’re looking forward to bringing that combination of low prices, service and expertise to even more communities during 2025.”
