We're Done with the Same Old Game – It’s Time to Change the Industry." 

We've seen it over and over again with brands we trust , and the list goes on. They beg us to bring their products into our stores, we invest time and money into building them up, and then what happens? They sell out to private equity, jack up prices, and flood the online giants with huge discounts that we can't compete with.

 

 We end up with NO margin, and then we have to listen to customers complain that we’re too expensive, or worse, they sell directly on their website with massive discounts, leaving us in the dust. It's frustrating and it’s not sustainable. 

 

We’re DONE with this cycle. 

 

 

That’s why we created Chew Locally—a brand that is EXCLUSIVELY available at local pet stores like yours. We’re tired of seeing businesses like ours get squeezed by big companies that don’t care about us. We’re building something REAL that stores can stand behind—without the constant fear that it’ll be pulled out from under you. 

 

Brands expect us to operate on 30-35% margins on food—and that’s before you even factor in credit card fees, overhead, and all the other costs that eat up those margins. It’s a losing game, and we’re sick of playing it.

 

  "We’re starting with these 6 items, including bulk 6-inch and 12-inch bully sticks. But with your support, we hope to expand into more treats, food, toys, and other supplies. Our goal is to build a brand that’s truly exclusive to local pet stores—something you can rely on without worrying about the same old cycle of price hikes and discounts that undercut your business."
