Our Story

Since 2007, Woof Gang Bakery and Grooming has been providing pets and pet parents with a joyful, caring destination for grooming and retail services. Founded in Florida, we’ve grown from a single store at the Publix Plaza in Palm Beach Gardens to over 300 locations open or under development across eighteen states. Every one of our franchises is locally owned and operated by members of the community they serve, giving Woof Gang Bakery a neighborhood feel that our competitors can’t match. Our passion for pets and commitment to neighborly customer service has made us one of the fastest growing names in the pet franchise industry.

What sets us apart from other brands in the pet franchise space?

Grooming

Woof Gang Bakery offers a unique dual concept that prioritizes grooming. In fact, grooming is 66% of our business! We groom over one million dogs per year in a spa-like atmosphere that is indulgent, loving, and revitalizing. Unlike other groomers, we don’t see grooming as hygiene alone; it’s an experience for pets and pet parents alike. Our franchise locations take care to pamper your furry friend throughout the grooming process, ensuring a happy pet and satisfied owners. We know that our customers’ dogs and cats are family, so we care for them like they’re our very own.

Retail

On the retail side of our business, we carry food, treats, and other products that have been selected for their superior quality. Many of our competitors are big-box stores that carry too many products for all kinds of pets, but we specialize in the very best for dogs and cats. Pet parents can feel confident that our food and treats are all-natural and free of artificial colors, flavors, and preservatives. From treats baked with love to innovative healthcare products like CBD, we stock our stores with high-end products that we’d give our own pets. We care about every pet we serve, and pet parents can feel the difference from the moment they walk through our doors.

Woof Gang Treats

Woof Gang Bakery offers exclusive gourmet treats that are dog tested, puppy approved, and each one looks as good as it tastes. Although our stores no longer have built-in bakeries, our stores are supplied with proprietary products that provide a unique competitive advantage in retail without the operational costs of running a bakery. Customers can spoil their furry friends the right way, with our all-natural dog treats, made from only the highest quality ingredients — free of artificial flavors, fillers, and preservatives.

Return on Investment

Woof Gang provides potential franchise owners with some of the best economics in the franchising industry. Thanks to our unique dual concept business model, our average store sales are about $703,000 per year; with a mid-point investment cost of $287,800, that means your average sales are three times higher than the investment!

Our Accomplishments

While we think that our approach to business and passion for our customers speaks for itself, we also stand behind our accomplishments. Woof Gang Bakery was named a top 10 retailer by Pet Business Media and recognized as one of the nation’s fastest growing pet chains by Pet Insight magazine. We’ve also received the Retailer of the Year Franchise Award from Pet Product News and Pet Business Media’s Multiservice Excellence Award. We’re proud of the way we’ve grown our business, and this commitment to doing things the right way is at the heart of our promise to franchise owners: we love what we do, and we want you to love what you do.
