Pet shops live on regulars buying the same food every few weeks, so running out of a brand or losing a customer to an online delivery hurts. A till with stock control can build supplier orders, an online shop can put food on a repeat order, and loyalty, gift cards and opted-in emails keep regulars coming back. Advice on a pet's health or special diet stays with staff and the owner's vet, and product claims stay exactly as the pack states.
