India’s petcare landscape is undergoing a major transformation and leading this movement with energy, innovation, and empathy is Petfolk, a fast-growing brand that’s on a mission to bring quality petcare to every nook and corner of the country.
Founded by Laxmikanth Puducherri, a serial entrepreneur with over 25 years of global business experience and a lifelong passion for animals, Petfolk began with a simple but powerful idea: pets deserve better. From hygienic grooming to holistic care, from accessible services to modern products, Petfolk has committed itself to being the most trusted name in Indian petcare.
What started with a single mobile grooming van has now evolved into a national brand with plans to launch over 400 outlets across India. These include:
– Flagship experience stores, built with rich thematic environments like jungles or aquariums.
– Express grooming units, compact centers in residential neighborhoods and marketplaces.
– Grooming Pods, plug-and-play cabins installed in gated communities, parks, and commercial zones. These pods are purpose-built for Tier 1 cities, apartment clusters, and expanding urban areas, making professional grooming accessible and scalable.
Petfolk’s aim is not only to provide services, but to build a connected, emotionally resonant petcare ecosystem. Several of these outlets are also being integrated with veterinary services, creating one-stop wellness hubs for pet parents.
One of the standout examples of Petfolk’s innovation is its Bandra outlet in Mumbai. Touted as the first-of-its-kind in the world, this jungle-themed grooming experience offers pets an environment they’ve never seen before. Pets are bathed in specially crafted boats, then dried off inside a jungle-style hut surrounded by lush plants, soothing lighting, and natural textures. It’s not just grooming , it’s a calming, immersive experience that’s captured the imagination of Mumbai’s pet parents and set a new global benchmark in petcare.
As the brand scales, it continues to launch new centers in strategic locations across India including Goa, Visakhapatnam, Rajahmundry, and Hyderabad. One of the most exciting upcoming projects is the Narsingi outlet in Hyderabad, which brings an aqua-themed grooming experience to life. With cool-toned interiors, gentle blue lighting, and oceanic design elements, pets will enjoy a serene spa-like setting that’s designed to reduce stress and enhance comfort. However, Petfolk’s vision extends far beyond grooming.
Coming soon is Petfolk’s own line of scientifically formulated supplements, tailored to meet the specific nutritional needs of Indian pets. These products will address critical gaps in pet diets , especially in Tier 2 and Tier 3 towns where quality pet nutrition is still emerging. Backed by veterinary insights and formulated for local conditions, these supplements will be affordable, safe, and effective.
Petfolk is also preparing to launch its range of pet clothing, featuring comfort-first, weather-adapted designs that suit Indian breeds and climates. The roadmap includes pet accessories, imported product lines, innovative pet cycles, and insurance-backed pet health plans, all under the Petfolk banner.
For those who believe in building meaningful businesses, Petfolk offers franchise opportunities across its outlet types. With full operational support, branding assets, staff training, and marketing help, franchisees are empowered to become part of something much larger than a business , a movement.
What makes Petfolk different is not just its range or reach, it’s the soul of the brand. Every store, van, or pod is a space where pets are treated like family. Every product is made with purpose. Every expansion is planned not for profit alone, but for impact.
With a clear roadmap, growing nationwide presence, and a wave of new innovations, Petfolk is poised to become India’s most beloved petcare brand. It’s a story of how vision meets execution, how business meets compassion, and how one man’s mission is reshaping the future of pet parenting.
Whether you are a pet parent, a franchise dreamer, or someone who simply wants to see pets treated with the care they deserve , Petfolk welcomes you to be part of its journey.
