Scotland Loves Local Week: Pearl’s Pet Care

This week (28 August to 3 September) we’re featuring town centre businesses to highlight the first Scotland Loves Local Week, which is championing the fabulous shops and business we have on our doorstep.

Pearl runs a pet shop on Tolbooth Street with a huge selection of supplies for your animal friends. She is a well-known advocate of the shop local message, and very supportive of the business community.

Her shop has been a mainstay of the area for more than 40 years, starting in Kinloss and eventually moving to Forres Town Centre. With a great can-do attitude, Pearl always tries to offer exactly what people ask for, even trying to source items not typically in stock.

Pearl says: “Supporting our local businesses helps to support our families, friends, neighbours and the local economy.”
