Luxury Pet Department is moving to a new home!!

Luxury Pet Department move to new premises. After many months of hard work and determination, Luxury Pet Department finally moved to their new premises this week. The new building, based in Hingham’s Park, London provides the ideal location for the company.

We have more room for our new members of staff, plus we have the option to expand and open a new store in the area should we chose to do so. Moving all of the new stock over was the hardest part, but at least we now have the room required to take the company further.

All of the new fittings are in place and we now have all of our office furniture setup in the building including my new funky directors desk and chair (oh how the power has got to me). A big shout goes to the best IT Support company in London :) We managed to get all of the IT network setup thanks to our IT Department who helped us setup the hardware and a new Hosted desktop platform. So that’s it really, let’s hope its onwards and upwards in 2010!!

Best selling pet products of 2009.

Recession, what recession? At least that’s what it felt like during the Christmas rush last year. We were expecting last Christmas to be more quite then usual due to the current financial climate but we couldn’t have been more wrong as I am very glad to say that this Christmas, we recorded record sales since our launch back in 2006.

So what did we sell? here is a breakdown of our top 5 products for December…

5. The Hampton dog bed.

I am personally not surprised that two variations of the Chester and Wells range made it into our top 5. The Hampton dog bed has been selling particularly well since its launch and this Christmas we completely sold out of the smaller sizes in both colours. It seems that the small dog owners have taken a shine to our Hampton dog beds!!

4. Ducky World catnip cigars.

Wow, everyone went catnip mental this Christmas!! We simply couldn’t get the stock in quick enough. A catnip goes, the Ducky world is expensive, but it lasts for ages and it truly is the strongest stuff money can buy.

3. Doggy Things 2 stripe dog collar.

These leather dog collars are excellent value for money and they look very smart indeed. The pink colour was the most popular choice for our customers this Christmas.

2. k9 paw print dog hoodie.

Very popular indeed, especially during these colder times. Theses hoodies are fantastic quality and we have found that a lot owners with older dogs like them because of their warmth.

1. The Richmond dog bed.

We added these beds to our website in November and since then the response to these range of  dog beds has been overwhelming. This beds look STUNNING and the build quality is s good as I have seen. by far the most popular selling item of Christmas 2009. Thank you for reading our entry. 2010 will see a huge addition to the range of items we sell so watch this space for more information.
