Woof Gang Continues to Conquer the United States, New Locations Set to Open in Michigan and Oregon

The pet franchise brand kicks off 2024 strong, breaking into Michigan and Oregon with stores slated to open in early 2025

Woof Gang Bakery & Grooming, the leading pet grooming franchise in the United States, is proud to announce its official entry into two new states in 2024, further solidifying its nationwide presence. Building on the momentum from a remarkable 2023, Woof Gang has inked agreements to establish new locations in Oregon and Michigan.

The Oregon location will be situated in Lake Oswego, just outside the vibrant city of Portland, while the Michigan location will find its home in Northville, conveniently located near Ann Arbor.

"We are thrilled to kick off the new year by expanding our footprint into Oregon and Michigan," said Ricardo Azevedo, CEO of Woof Gang Bakery & Grooming. "This expansion is not just about opening new stores; it's about extending our family and spreading love and joy to the pet communities we serve. Each new location strengthens our mission to enrich the lives of pets and their owners with our exceptional products and services. To ink agreements in these markets right on the heels of opening our first international location in Canada is a true testament to the profitability and success of Woof Gang for entrepreneurs."

The inking of agreements for Oregon and Michigan follows a year of remarkable growth for Woof Gang. In 2023, the company successfully entered into agreements for stores to open in Washington D.C. and ten new states, including California, Arizona, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Maryland, Washington, Massachusetts, and Minnesota. With the addition of Oregon and Michigan, Woof Gang will soon have locations in 30 states, covering more than half of the United States.

Moreover, in January 2024, Woof Gang achieved a significant milestone by opening its first international location in Oakville, Canada, a suburb of Toronto. The company has plans to continue to “paint Canada pink”, with five additional stores slated to open in the Greater Toronto area.

Woof Gang's expansion into Oregon and Michigan underscores its mission to providing exceptional products and services tailored to spreading love and joy to pet communities across the nation.
