Catnip
"Catnip has made a big impression on the pet industry, and every store should stock lots of in in many different forms. Catnip is a tremendously important item in the pet industry, as it can be sold to cat customers for a variety of reasons. When catnip is combined with toys, (such as Nip n' Toy), it creates an added interest for the cat. For cats, the biggest benefit of play is exercise and the resulting fitness. The health benefits of exercise are more easily obtainable when catnip is used as a tool to help entice the sometimes less than active cat. Planned play periods can also have a huge affect on the human animal bond, strengthening the relationship between the two. The catnip used with toys to encourage more interactive play with also help with curbing disruptive behaviors, such as pouncing, jumping and biting, as well as the scratching of furniture, drapery and walls. Catnip toys represent the most common use of the catnip product for consumers. Stock heavily on catnip toys- they all sell well."From Pet Business, September 08.
Pet Industry
2nd Fastest Growing Retail Sector
The Pet industry is expected to remain the fastest growing consumer retail sector after electronics, according to investment banking firm The Mercanti Group. In a new report, Mercanti says that the driver within the industry's steady, basic growth remains pet owners with high wages. That group is increasing spending on high end foods, treats and other items and services.Where to put North Woods Animal Treats?
"Treat purchases are often made on impulse. Rarely are pet owners going out to the store specifically to purchase treats. More often than not, they're picking these items up when they come across an interesting product during their trip to a store." Give these product prominence int he store by utilizing end cap, floor and counter displays."
North Woods treats come in a hand made unfinished pine display crate. There is nothing in the pet industry like this display. Take advantage of it, put it on the counter, and watch your treat sales grow!
