Anipet has invested in the most dynamic sales team on the road in an effort to offer unparalleled service levels to our accounts across the Western Provinces. The Anipet team is committed to retailer success through face to face consultation beyond the sale of a product. We offer full retail concepts and programs through comprehensive product categories and regular promotions as well as offering a variety of “value added” benefits. These benefits range from consultation on store set up and merchandising solutions to teaching retail employees about the latest Industry Trends and Sales Skills all in an effort to help our retail partners grow their business.
Our sales effort is supported by an Inside Sales and Marketing team that is available to take retailer orders, answer any product inquiries or take care of any other questions or concerns our retailers may have.
Our promotional calendar is designed to support the needs of our retail accounts with bi-monthly bulletins, seasonal bulletins and weekly hot specials. We believe that our competitive pricing combined with our service advantage, loyalty programs and volume discounts provide an unsurpassed value to our retail partners.
“Anipet’s success depends on our retailer’s success. Partnership is not just another word; it is part of our corporate philosophy that allows us to create win-win relationships with our accounts. We are not in their store just to “get a sale”, we are there to help them grow their business and be as successful as they can be.” Troy Firth, CEO
