Pet Wants: Revolutionizing Fresh Pet Food Delivery

Established in 2010 and based in Cincinnati, Ohio, Pet Wants has quickly gained traction in the flourishing pet food industry.

The company began franchising in 2014, inviting entrepreneurs to join their mission of delivering fresh, premium-quality pet food directly to customers’ homes.

Pet Wants stands out by offering freshly made, slow-cooked pet food crafted with whole, natural ingredients and free from fillers or artificial additives—setting them apart from traditional pet stores that sell mass-produced products.

Additionally, the brand provides a unique advantage for franchisees through its mobile launch phase. This approach helps new owners build a loyal customer base before expanding into a permanent location, which often includes grooming services.
