Building on the success of its flagship store, Allfish Emporium, the company's primary focus is to develop the Allpets Emporium brand. "In South Florida, Allpets Emporium has set the tone and redefined the big box pet store experience," said Steve Berlin, Chief Executive Officer of Aquarium Retail Holdings. "We look forward to serving new customers and their pets in the Coral Springs area, who can expect to find the same professionalism, product diversity and customer service that has been the driving force of our growth and success."
As its predecessors, the newest location will offer residents of Coral Springs and surrounding cities the opportunity to shop and spoil their pets in a more upscale environment than traditional pet stores. The store will strongly promote dog food offerings, specifically variety, presentation and premium brands rarely found in big box retailers. Additionally, servicing the aquarium hobbyist will be emphasized, with the aquatics section occupying almost one-quarter of the location's square footage. The store will sell freshwater and marine fish, and include over 10,000 gallons of aquarium exhibits and themed displays. The focal point of the store will be a one-of-a-kind, six-foot diameter, cylinder aquarium with an African theme, featuring a variety of wildlife indigenous to the lakes of Africa.
A lease agreement has been reached with Miami Beach-based LNR Property, LLC, which owns Turtle Crossing, a retail shopping center located in Coral Springs at the southwest corner of the intersection of US441 and Wiles Road where the newest Allpets Emporium store will be located. Allpets Emporium will co-anchor the plaza with Super Target. The store's grand opening is expected early 2013.
