A well-known Hudson Valley business that has served pet owners and farmers for nearly five decades has been put up for sale, according to Hudson Valley Post. This development has sparked curiosity among customers about the potential impact on their favorite pet supply store. The business has built a loyal customer base over the years.
The company's success can be attributed to its wide range of products and knowledgeable staff, which have earned it a high online rating. Customers often praise the store's friendly service and extensive selection of pet food and supplies. This reputation has been established over 47 years of operation.
The property, which includes the business and surrounding commercial land, is being offered for sale with an asking price of $1.75 million. The listing includes three buildings, providing a total of approximately 6,700 square feet of space. This includes a main building with nearly 4,000 square feet of retail space.
In addition to the main building, the property features a separate building currently occupied by a tax preparation business and a recently constructed steel building for storage. The business is described as a profitable and fully staffed operation with an established customer base. Potential buyers have the option to purchase the business, the real estate, or a combination of both.
The future of the business is uncertain, but the listing suggests that the property could continue to operate as a pet supply store. The location, along a busy stretch of Route 28, sees a significant amount of traffic, with approximately 20,000 vehicles passing by each day. This makes it an attractive opportunity for someone looking to take over an established business.
For now, customers can continue to shop at the store while the owners seek a buyer. The reason for the sale after nearly five decades in business is unclear, but there is no indication that the store will close immediately. Hudson Valley Post reported that the business will continue to operate as usual during this time.
