Award-Winning Welsh Pet Food Company Launches New Garden Shop in Carmarthenshire

A Carmarthenshire pet food company has launched a brand-new garden shop near the company’s head quarters in the stunning historical town of Kidwelly, Carmarthenshire.

This will be the first garden centre-style shop for beloved Welsh pet food brand, Burns Pet Nutrition, who are known for their award-winning, healthy and natural pet food range, originally launched in 1993 by local veterinary surgeon John Burns.

The new shop will sit on the grounds of their much loved Parc-y-Bocs facility, an award-winning farm shop and café featuring a working farm, garden and outdoor play area. The garden shop will sell a variety of indoor and outdoor plants, seeds, flowers and gardening equipment, and offer advice to anyone looking for help with their gardening projects. Uniquely, the new garden shop will also be staffed by the same gardeners who tend the grounds at Parc-y-Bocs, which means that any gardening advice on offer to customers will be backed by years of experience and skill. 

The store launched early in May, and has complemented the farm shop and café well. John Burns, owner and founder of Burns Pet Nutrition said:

“Bringing a new garden shop to the area was a very natural decision for us. Much like our Parc-y-Bocs café, our new garden shop will emphasise the importance of shopping locally and championing the environment. The shop will sell products from our own farm and offer advice from our on-site gardeners, offering great value and a unique experience for customers.”

Alongside the launch of several new dedicated Burns pet shops this year, Burns has also continued their campaign to support charities and community initiatives in Wales and throughout the UK. Burns donates a huge 25% of all profits to charitable causes and community initiatives every year, and even have their own registered charity, the John Burns Foundation. They have a great love and appreciation for the local area of Kidwelly, which is why both the charity foundation building and head office are located there.

The new garden shop is open from Wednesday to Sunday between 10am and 3pm and can be found within the Parc-y-Bocs grounds, on Carmarthen Rd., Kidwelly, SA17 5AB.
