- Market Outlook / Competition
- Lower Brooklyn (Marine Park, Breezy Point, through Bensonhurst and Dyker Heights to Sunset Park) plus all of Staten Island, this is a solid market with consistent growth since mid-2020. The COVID lockdown created a huge and unexpected demand for in-home dog training because so many people began working from home and were then able to bring a dog into their family. This territory has a high percentage of residential property which allows for this business to thrive. Lots of families mean there will be many homes with dogs.
- Opportunities for Growth
- Territory area boasts a large urban population which includes lower Brooklyn (over 1 million people) and all of Staten Island (over 500,000 people).
