Pet Supermarket.co.uk’s managing director, Mark Berriman says: “Pet Supermarket.co.uk was established by pet lovers for pet lovers, to provide the products that they and their animals rely on, at the best possible prices.

“We offer our customers a five point guarantee, which includes ‘delivery when it suits you’. Yodel’s services help us to fulfil that promise and from 12 September customers will be able to choose from a variety of Yodel’s options including 24, 48 and 74 hour delivery – which can be essential when buying medication for your pet.”

Speaking on behalf of Yodel, Sales Director, Jerry Kane added: “Like Pet Supermarket.co.uk, Yodel also holds the customer at the heart of its business.
