PIR is a peer networking group for pet industry professionals who would like to correspond with other pet business owners, discuss pet care, exchange merchandise, share ideas, etc. Membership is limited to existing independent pet retail-related businesses, either physical or online, that stock/sell a minimum of 10 unique product lines. Retail business owners and their managing partners may join PIR but, unfortunately, store employees do not qualify. Access to this board is not available to the general public, so members are free to discuss their business practices in detail with one another. As a networking group, it is imperative that each member actively participate in discussions on a regular basis.

You must provide your business name, shop location, website address and a valid e-mail address in your application in order to be accepted into the group. The PIR board moderator reserves the right to accept, deny or remove members at any time, at moderator's discretion. Members are solely responsible for the accuracy and content of their board posts. No direct sales pitches or e-mail farming/spamming is allowed. The only requirements to remaining a member are professional conduct and a working email address. New members, please introduce yourself and tell us about your business.
