Partnership to strengthen brand profile across the UK retail and pet sector

Pets Corner, the family-run UK pet retailer known for its expert-trained teams, premium natural products and commitment to pet wellbeing, has appointed PHA as its retained public relations agency.

With more than 160 stores nationwide, alongside Dogwood Grooming Salons and Pet Practice veterinary surgeries, Pets Corner continues to grow its presence while maintaining a strong focus on customer care, colleague development, and responsible retailing. Its Academy-trained teams deliver trusted advice and personalised service, supported by a carefully curated range of high-quality food, accessories, and health products.

PHA will work alongside the Pets Corner team to raise brand awareness, strengthen media relationships, and support the business’s ongoing growth across retail. The appointment follows a period of continued investment in the business, including the recent arrival of Nick Anderson as Chief Retail Officer, bringing extensive multi-site retail leadership experience to support operational excellence and expansion.

David Pack, Digital Director at Pets Corner, said: ““As we continue to grow our store and digital footprint, it’s important that our brand story is told clearly and consistently. PHA brings strong sector expertise and a strategic approach that aligns well with our ambition to build awareness of Pets Corner’s expertise, values and customer-first culture. We’re looking forward to working together to strengthen our presence across the media as the business continues to evolve.”

Suzanne Haysler, EVP of Consumer, at The PHA Group, said: “Pets Corner is a standout brand in the pet and retail sector, with a compelling story around expertise, quality, and community. We’re excited to support the team in amplifying their message, showcasing their people and helping to strengthen their presence across trade, consumer, and regional media.”

The partnership will focus on corporate profiling, brand storytelling and thought leadership, reinforcing Pets Corner’s position as one of the UK’s most trusted specialist pet retailers.
