CoGoGo welcomes to the market, Pawprint Pet Store.

Pawprint pet store was founded by the current owner when she identified a need in the city and the business has been a real labour of love for her accruing an ever increasing number of regular customers and a burgeoning reputation.

The business is now being sold, albeit reluctantly and with a heavy heart only due to the owners wish to return to her birth country of Spain, she is keen to see her beloved pet shop pass to an ambitious and entrepreneurial new owner who can take this lovely little business to the next level.

Should a new buyer be interested, the business can be changed and could work well as a supermarket /convenience store type shop.
