Foothill Retail Corridor

Petco has opened another of their smaller format stores in Claremont at 905 W Foothill in the Sprouts shopping center.

I wrote earlier about the new format in Monrovia that is approximately 1,500 square feet, which is much smaller than their typical stores that are 10,000 to 15,000 square feet. The smaller format focuses more on pet essentials such as food. Sorry, you can’t go in there to see puppies or kittens, as they do not carry them.

A smaller version of Petco called Unleashed has opened in Monrovia at 614 Huntington Drive in the Huntington Oaks Shopping Center.

The store, approximately 1,500 square feet, is much smaller than the typical 10,000 to 15,000 square foot store and will focus more on pet essentials such as food. One of the obvious missing items in the smaller format is the selection of live pets, however, they still have pet adoptions.

The Huntington Oaks Shopping Center is anchored by Kohl’s, Best Buy & Beyond, Marshalls, and Trader Joes.
