New Delhi, 28 March 2025: Zigly,
(Cosmo First Limited) India’s first tech-enabled omnichannel pet care brand is
on an expansion spree to address the myriad pet care service demands across the
country. The pet care brand has further launched four new stores thereby
increasing its market presence in Northern and Southern India. Zigly has reported
consistent month-on-month revenue growth, with a current ARR (net revenue) reaching
approximately Rs 56 Cr (as of Dec 2024)
and the Company is targeting to more than double it in the next 1-2 years.
The
new stores are at JP Nagar and Bel road at Bengaluru; Sector 35 B in Chandigarh
- a 24*7 facility, and Shankar Road, Rajinder Nagar, Delhi.
Along with this, Zigly has opened two pet hospitals, which is in
line with the brand’s mission to provide a holistic and comprehensive petcare
ecosystem for the pet parents and their furry friends. This also synergises its
vision to complement pet care with full-scale vet services and timely treatment
for pets.
As part of this expansion, the Kailash Colony Experiential Center in
Delhi has been transformed into a fully-operational pet hospital. Furthermore,
to enhance its presence in the southern market, Zigly has opened its hospital
in Jubilee Hills, Hyderabad.
Additionally, JP Nagar,
Bel Road & Shankar Road centers provides Specialty
Vet Care Services – Vaccinations, Consultations, Surgeries, and Radiology, with
Chandigarh store complementing Zigly’s vet services with 24x7 vet care services
as well as Emergency Care, IPD & Ultrasound.
“With the new year, we are bringing fresh tidings for our pet
parents, new and existing, to provide an ever-improving petcare ecosystem in
India. Our expansion strategy reflects our commitment to elevating the
standards of pet healthcare in the country, with the transformation of our
iconic Kailash Colony Experiential Center into a hospital and opening of a new one
in Hyderabad. These mark just some of the many beginnings of our enhanced
service offerings for pet parents,” said Mr Pankaj Poddar, Group CEO, Cosmo First.
The company is also strengthening its veterinary expertise by
welcoming Dr Mahendran to the medical leadership team, bringing decades of
specialized experience in pet healthcare. Dr Mahendra has over 35 years of
experience and is the Head of Hospitals at Zigly.
The petcare
industry in India experiencing robust growth with an expected annual growth
rate of 19% over the next decade. This is mainly driven due to growing
disposable incomes and increasing pet ownership by millennials and Gen-Z who
view pets as family members. Interestingly, there has been an uptick in pet
adoption from Tier 2 and 3 cities as well providing tailwinds to the growth of
the petcare industry.
Due to this
emotional connection between pet parents and their furry friends, Zigly has
witnessed higher spending on premium products, including high-quality food,
along with growing demands for pet services such as grooming, veterinary care
and pet-friendly, safe accessories and toys. This has led to the rise of
e-commerce platforms to cater for this demand. Zigly Lifestyle, FurPro grooming
range, and the Applod treats and biscuits range are part of the petcare brand’s
in-house products and services to address these demands.
Moving ahead in
2025, Zigly has initiated a home delivery service within 90 minutes of ordering
pet food and accessories as well as introducing a dedicated e-commerce website
in the pipeline.
