Inkvex analysis, not a franchisor disclosure
What the Pet Supplies Plus numbers mean next to the rest of the benchmark
This section places the stored $520,250 to $1,818,900 range against the other 54 brand groups. The medians, ranks, ratios, and nearest peers are Inkvex arithmetic, not franchisor disclosures. The corpus mixes 2024 through 2026 records, multiple formats, and different real-estate treatments, so use it for directional comparison and verify the underlying rows before making a decision.
Against Retail
Across the 5 Retail format rows in this benchmark, the median low is $284,786 and the median high is $506,542. Pet Supplies Plus opens 83% above that median low, a gap of $235,464, and tops out 259% above the median high, a gap of $1,312,358. 0% of Retail formats here exclude real estate from the headline total, so check the real-estate handling before setting two brands in this category side by side.
Against all 55 brands
Pet Supplies Plus ranks 7th of 55 by high-end total, its $1,818,900 high end running 182% above the $644,000 corpus median high, and its $520,250 low end 89% above the $275,500 corpus median low. The brands sitting closest to Pet Supplies Plus on high-end total are Dunkin' at $1,832,500 in Food/QSR, Big O Tires at $1,882,500 in Automotive and Sola Salons at $1,748,296 in Beauty, which is the company Pet Supplies Plus actually keeps on cost regardless of what industry it is sorted into.
The spread between low and high
Pet Supplies Plus discloses a high end 3.5 times its low end, against a median of 2.1 times across these 55 brands. At 3.5 times, the ratio sits at or above the upper quartile of this benchmark. The arithmetic shows a relatively wide stored range; it does not identify why the endpoints differ or where a proposed site will land. The gap between the two ends is $1,298,650, and nothing in Item 7 tells a buyer where inside that gap their own build lands.
What financing review still requires
This page does not calculate the cash a buyer needs and does not predict lender approval. SBA currently lists a $5,000,000 maximum for a single 7(a) loan, but eligibility, loan amount, documents, and terms depend on the borrower, lender, project, and transaction. The currently effective SBA SOP 50 10, Version 8 contains transaction-specific equity rules; Version 8.1 is posted with an October 1, 2026 effective date. A lender should build the sources-and-uses schedule from the current FDD, local bids, working capital, and any costs the Item 7 range excludes.
What the headline total does and does not include
The total reflects leased retail rather than a real-estate purchase. In plain terms, the $520,250 to $1,818,900 headline for Pet Supplies Plus reflects occupying premises rather than buying them, so lease terms drive what the space actually costs.
Verify this before you sign a Pet Supplies Plus agreement
This page is a benchmark comparison with the source limitation stated above. When the relevant language appears in the Pet Supplies Plus FDD you upload, an Inkvex review can surface quoted passages, a 1-to-10 risk score, real-estate and working-capital issues, and an attorney-handoff summary. Coverage depends on the document and analysis output, so verify every material point against the filing and with franchise counsel.
