Our Berwick location recently opened on 229 Commercial Street! With a new space, the store is bigger and better than ever. We chatted with our Berwick Store Manager Jeffery Brydon to hear some of his thoughts about the store’s transition and new look!
Q: Tell us about the old store location.
A: “We opened our store in Berwick in April of 1995. The location was on a side street with low visibility. The retail space was small and very limited in what we could do to improve our appearance. We were able to grow our business there until November 2019 when another building became available in Berwick with more space, much better location, and the chance to better serve our customers.”
Q: How did your team feel about moving the store?
A: The day we officially secured the new building was very exciting. From the very beginning, all of our staff were on board with the move, and each member played a very important role in making the move happen. We were given a clean slate to start with, which gave us a great opportunity to incorporate much of our new Feeds’n Needs branding and design elements. Our fresh new look was desperately needed for the store… it was a ton of work, but something we are all proud of!
Q: What is the best part of being in your new location?
A: The old location was small, hard to move around in with little space to expand our product offering. Compared to our new location, it’s like night and day! We have added great new product lines in-store and have created a better shopping environment to better serve our customers. And how could we forget our brand new Splash’n Dash Dog Wash! Having this in our store has allowed us to better serve our pet parent customers, too.
Q: How has the community responded to your new location?
A: The support from our community has been absolutely amazing from day one. We have heard so many positive comments from customers, which has really made all of the work worthwhile! We look forward to continue serving them for years to come in our new space.
