Woof Gang Bakery & Grooming Paints Canada Pink With Opening of First Store in Ontario

The leading pet grooming franchise brand officially enters Canada with the opening of its newest location in Oakville, Ontario

Woof Gang Bakery & Grooming, the renowned pet care brand, is thrilled to announce the official opening of its first Canadian store in Oakville, Ontario. The Oakville location is the first step in a larger plan by Woof Gang to "paint Canada pink." The brand is slated to open five additional stores in the Greater Toronto Area this year, solidifying its commitment to spreading love and joy to the vibrant pet communities of Ontario.

“The opening of the Oakville location marks a significant step in our larger plan to 'paint Canada pink,' and I'm particularly thrilled because, after my previous experience at Tim Hortons, I've personally witnessed the passion that franchise owners in Canada bring to their businesses,” said Ricardo Azevedo, CEO of Woof Gang Bakery & Grooming who previously served as President of Tim Hortons USA, “Woof Gang's commitment to providing exclusive, gourmet treats and superior grooming services aligns perfectly with the dedication and care that I’ve seen in franchise owners in Canada. We are not just opening a store; we are building a pet haven for the community, and I look forward to spreading love and joy to the pets of Oakville and beyond."

Powered by an extraordinary structure of science and technology, Woof Gang provides the best grooming experience, the most exquisite and delicious treats, and a heartfelt commitment to pet communities. This synergy of passion, technology, and community engagement is the cornerstone of Woof Gang's strategy as it embarks on its journey in the Great White North, starting with the vibrant pet-loving community of Oakville.

This store is located at 2460 Neyagawa Blvd, Oakville, ON L6H 7P4, Canada. To celebrate the grand opening of the Oakville location, Woof Gang is giving back to its newest community with a celebration that will take place in March and will feature raffles, giveaways, special prizes, and there will be an opportunity for 20 lucky dogs to win free treats for a year.

Woof Gang's commitment to creating a pet-friendly haven extends beyond borders, and the Oakville store is poised to become a hub for pet lovers seeking top-notch grooming services and premium treats.
