Encyclopedia
Pet Food Express is a Northern California chain of retail stores that offers premium, holistic, and organic pet food, as well as many other pet supplies, as well as self-service dog washes.
Pet Food Express President and co-owner Michael Levy started a dog training business in 1976 and opened his first San Francisco location in 1980, selling some food and supplies. In ’86, he left dog training to focus on retail and had expanded to three locations by the time his business partner, Mark Witriol, came aboard in 1992. They have consistently expanded, even during the recent recession, and will have more than 40 locations in Northern California by the end of 2011. Michael and Pet Food Express partner with more than 100 non-profit animal rescue and shelter organizations, and regularly donate more than $1 million a year to those organizations. Pet Food Express has a high standard of quality for its food and products. The company motto is: If we won’t feed it to our pets, we won’t sell it for yours.
