PJ's Pets Closing 27 Locations
PJ's Pets is closing 27 stores in six provinces, with inventory selloffs underway, US parent company Gordon Brothers Group reported last week. PJ's VP Brad Hamilton says he is saddened to be shutting the shops (including Petculture, Pets Unlimited, and Oliver and Pets Co) after nearly 50 years of operation. There are 11 PJ's in Ontario, with locations at Bramalea City Centre, Pickering Town Centre and 3291 Yonge St (above), TO's only. The chain lost around $17M in the past three years, according to PricewaterhouseCoopers, blamed in part on a decision to stop selling puppies.
