      Cogogo presents a fantastic opportunity to acquire Bark & Bath Dog Grooming, a well-established and highly regarded dog grooming salon in Glasgow.

      This turnkey business comes with a full diary of appointments and a loyal customer base, making it an excellent investment for an experienced groomer or entrepreneur looking to step into the thriving pet care industry. The salon operates with a team of fully qualified, experienced, and insured groomers, providing a stress-free and welcoming environment where dogs are pampered with professional care.

      Bark & Bath is located in a premium area with a strong local customer base. The salon is fully equipped with grooming stations for four full-time groomers and 4 electric tables plus one hydraulic pump table, a one-year-old hydrobath, including a one-year-old hydrobath, two stand dryers, and three blaster dryers. The business has been recognised for its quality service, having been selected by Children’s BBC to groom dogs for a TV series in 2022, with another invitation extended this year.

      The business benefits from a fully seo-optimised website (), which generates 90% of all new business. This site can also be converted into an e-commerce platform if required. Additionally, the business has an active social media presence with 1,200 Facebook followers, a dedicated group page, and an Instagram account. Customer communication is seamless, thanks to a WhatsApp integration on the website.

      Services Offered:


      • Full & Maintenance Grooms - For short and long hair breeds, all sizes
      • Hand-stripping (not every salon offers this as it's a more specialist service that requires additional training/knowledge)
      • Emmi-Pet Ultrasonic Teeth Cleaning (since not many salons offer this service, we attract customers specifically for teeth cleaning, with local vets even recommending us to their clients. This creates a highly profitable additional income stream)
      • Puppy University - A unique programme designed to introduce puppies to grooming in a stress-free and positive way
      • Additional Services - De-Shedding and skin soothing mud baths, walk in nail clipping, eye and hygiene quick trim (additional income stream)

      Currently, Bark & Bath books around 50 appointments per week at an average cost of £65 (net of VAT) per appointment. The rental cost of the property is £8,580 per year. There is no shop lease currently held; the lease is out of contract and runs on a month-to-month basis with a very accommodating landlord. The salon’s heating system includes a 3kw boiler and radiators installed in 2020 (owned by the vendor), two air conditioning units, and a dehumidifier.

      With the pet grooming industry continuing to grow, Bark & Bath Dog Grooming presents an exciting opportunity for an individual or investor to take over a profitable and respected business in Glasgow.
