What are the requirements and how much capital is needed to open a pet grooming shop?

You need to apply for an industrial and commercial business license, which usually takes about 15 days. This matter is very easy to handle and not as difficult as imagined. Since the pet industry has not been developing in China for a long time, laws and regulations do not have clear standards and strict requirements for the pet industry. If you are opening a pet medical store, it will be more complicated. You need a veterinary practitioner certificate and an epidemic prevention certificate from the Ministry of Health.

Beauty equipment

First of all, you need a stable beauty table. Its surface is non-slip and has a stable bracket and fixed pet hanging rod. Keep pets safe on the grooming table.

Secondly, you need to prepare professional grooming tools. Such as: beautician comb, wooden handle needle comb, wire comb, dividing comb, etc. For different beauty procedures and situations, beauticians need to use different combs.

Thirdly, for dogs with tangled coats, use debonding water, toenail clippers, toenail files and professional styptic powder for trimming toenails, absorbent towels, special drying boxes or water blowers, Double barrel hair dryer and other appliances.

Finally, the beautician must use corresponding scissors due to different trimming positions. Scissors are subdivided into straight scissors, dental scissors, small straight scissors, and curved scissors. For dog breeds that need to be shaved, professional electric scissors with different types of blades should be used for trimming.

Business Items

The pet store mainly recognizes four categories of goods: food (staple food, snacks and health products); conventional pet medicine (anthelmintics, ear drops) , eye wash, etc.); bath products (pet bath liquid); daily necessities (combs, nail clippers, nests, leashes, toys, clothes). Pet shop services include pet grooming, pet foster care, pet medical care, postpartum care, pet photography, pet marriage, etc.

Tips for newbies: Avoid having too many and miscellaneous products. It is best to start with pet supplies, focus on investment, and slowly expand.

Personal requirements

Pet store operations are closely related to the personal qualities of the operator. This puts forward new requirements for operators: keen industry insight, accurate market observation, and flexible customer response. The specific performance is that the grade and price of the store's products are determined based on the customer's consumption level and the grade of pet feeding.

In addition, operators need to have extensive knowledge on pet feeding and epidemic prevention. If not, it is best to hire several store employees who are familiar with pet feeding knowledge.
