Wilko to welcome pets in-store
10 February, 2022 | by Angela Beevers
Wilko has announced that it is to welcome dogs and cats in-store at 248 of its locations.
The move follows a successful trial in two stores, although shoppers will be asked to keep their pets on leads and the animals will not be allowed to enter any food aisles.
Shops accepting pets account for two thirds of Wilko’s store estate and are primarily those with on-street entrances.
In a statement on Facebook, the retailer said: “We hope that shoppers will enjoy bringing their furry friends along with them. Please check for new signage at the entrance of your local store to see if they are participating.”
