Jollyes opened its first Nuneaton today (Friday, June 28).
The store, at Newtown Road Retail Park in the town, was officially opened by The Countess Bathurst, founder and chair of the National Foundation for Retired Service Animals, alongside NFRSA ambassador and England rugby union player Lewis Ludlow, and Warwickshire police dogs.
Also joining them was Jollyes chief executive Joe Wykes, store manager Andy Kineton, his store team and mascots Molly and Jolly.
Jollyes chosen Ambassadogs also attended the opening biting through a string of sausages. They were Hugo, who also celebrated his fourth birthday today, alongside owner Ruta Pranckunaite; and Diesel. with owner Rebecca Alexander.
Mascots Jolly and Molly took to the streets of Nuneaton to launch their ‘Pet Manifesto’. Jollyes’ pet manifesto attempts to answer the question ‘What would pets ask for from candidates if they could vote?’ and has been compiled from the top suggestions made by Jollyes staff and its customers.
Store manager Andy said – “It was a great day and I’d like to thank the whole team for getting the store ready to open as well as new charity partners NFRSA. We’re really looking forward to working with them and also showing the pet parents of Nuneaton what we offer.”
