Each time you walk in, are you greeted with a smile and an offer to help? Is the staff knowledgeable and up to date on the products they sell? Can they talk to you about the nutritional value of the products they offer? How much training have they had on the products they sell? Do they really care about you and your livestock or animal needs? At Garoppo Feed and Pet Supply we take our role of educating animal owners seriously. It takes plenty of time and effort to learn about the products we sell so we are able to help answer any questions you may have.
Did you know that Garoppo Feed and Pet Supply is a “Purina Certified Expert Dealer?" Being a “ Purina Certified Expert Dealer” means that Garoppo Feed and Pet Supply offers a complete line of quality Purina feed products, have knowledgeable and trained associates and are a one-stop-shop for all our customers’ animal needs. Whether your focus is equine, cattle, wildlife or pet; Garoppo's offers the most complete source for your animal nutrition needs.
Training is a key element at Garoppo Feed and Pet Supply. In the case of Purina products, our employees receive additional training through a variety of methods. When new Purina products are being released, training is offered away from the store. Products that require a certain amount of technical expertise require certification for the store to sell them. We conduct up to six feeding trials per year with our customers on a range of Purina products from horse, cattle or wildlife.
Many of our employees have had the opportunity to attend the Longview Animal Nutrition Center outside of St. Louis, MO. This Purina development center provides a great training ground to learn about the development of products and the nutrition behind them. Online training via the internet is also available, and not only to us. Customers interested in the nutritional value of their horse are encouraged to log on to http://www.purinamills.com/ where you can find modules on horse, poultry, fowl, and many other nutrition sections. Customers can also log on to http://www.purinamills.com/Rewards and register with a valid email address to receive valuable coupons for Purina feed and supplies.
Another way Garoppo Feed and Pet Supply sets itself apart from other stores is the events we offer our customers. In the spring we offer a free Horse Owner’s Workshop, which provides horse nutrition education by Purina Mills. You also have the chance to learn from clinicians, farriers, experts in the animal health industry and more. During other times the year we offer events such as farm management, dog training and nutrition, and this year we've added “Chick-Chat", a seminar on raising your poultry flock from chicks to adults including nutrition, housing, behavioral issues and more.
Stop by our store and let our knowledgeable staff consult with you about your feeding program and help design one that best fits the needs of you and your animals, all while making sure it is economical. The next time you need feed ask yourself this, where else can I go to get great service from a knowledgeable and friendly staff who can also answer my animal nutrition questions?
