DALLAS – Military pets, rejoice! The Army & Air Force Exchange Service is welcoming Petco to the Exchange family.
The pet specialty retailer is slated to open its first store on a military installation at Joint Base Lewis-McChord in the spring.
“Pets help military members feel at home, wherever they are assigned,” said Air Force Chief Master Sgt. Luis Reyes, the Exchange’s senior enlisted advisor. “Having the services and convenience of Petco right on installation means healthier pets and happier pet owners.”
The JBLM Petco will offer grooming services and a variety of pet supplies, food and toys. The company’s 10% military discount will apply to all purchases, including services, at Exchange locations.
Offering name brands in-store and online is a priority for the Exchange. Petco is the latest in a series of announcements concerning national-brand introductions at Army posts and Air Force bases around the world.
“The Exchange is looking forward to expanding our partnership with Petco to serve more military communities,” Reyes said.
