‼ CLOSING DOWN SALE - 50% OFF EVERYTHING
We appreciate your time reading this, please share for us.
We have made the difficult decision to close Natural Dog Co. Unfortunately the finances of our country is in crisis and small businesses are suffering. We are not big enough to compete with the huge companies who sell the products we do, nor can we compete with the small online sellers who trade from home with very little overheads. When we opened our little business the market was niche, now it is flooded with others doing it from home and even treat sheds popping up on driveways, we just can't offer the prices that they do and nor are we willing to lower the quality of our products to be able to.
In addition to this our footfall has dropped significantly due to the changes on the market place in front of us, it was closed for 2 years, the endless negativity and broken promises/deadlines surrounding it we believe caused the public to lose faith in Shirebrook and shop elsewhere, It is open now but it's too late, there are very few stalls, the traders have gone elsewhere and so have the customers, it's such a shame as it's a beautiful place and could be incredible but without customers shops just can't thrive they find themselves just surviving, we know there are others that are in the same boat as us around the market place and we refuse to allow our ship to sink, we would rather close on our own terms.
We are holding a closing down sale with an aim to close at the end of November unless we have sold all the stock before. Every single item in the shop is now half price, we would really appreciate your help in clearing all our stock, please share this post with your friends and let everyone know. We prefer cash, we can still take card but would prefer cash as our card fees are high.
THE GROOM ROOM: Our salon is thriving, however it is not here to support our shop, Kerisha will be moving back to her home based salon as she was before she moved to NDC. If you have an appointment booked before our closing date this will still go ahead as planned, any appointments after will go ahead in her new location and she will be offering a collection/drop off service too. She will be contacting everyone over the next few weeks to advise of the changes. Please continue to follow the page as she will continue to use this for The Groom Room.
We are also selling all furniture in the shop, we have shelving units, freezers, a counter, a groom bath, endless boxes and slatwall hooks, 2 Epos now till systems and so much more. All being sold cheaply, everything in our window display is also for sale so please ask if you'd like anything.
We'd like to take this opportunity to thank each and every one of you for your support, we have so many loyal customers and if we could continue to run this business just to ensure your lovely dogs we genuinely would.
Just a final note, please continue to shop small, your local businesses need you to support their them. A customer visited our shop today and expressed their displeasure that an item we haven't sold since they last visited a year ago is no longer stocked. They told us they'd been buying Amazon for the last year as it's more convenient but had forgotten to order so came to us for it. This is the kind of thing that stops small businesses from thriving, they can't grow or even sustain on one visit a year. Please use them or you will lose them.
Thanks for all of your support and please come along to shop our half price sale, everything must go.
Thank you
