Ask before you sign

  1. Speak to at least 3 franchisees who have run an outlet for 2+ years and see their actual monthly sales and profit โ€” a franchisor making money doesn't mean its franchisees do.
  2. Ask whether you get an exclusive territory, and how large it is.
  3. Ask the brand to respond to each red flag listed under Reputation & News.

What Just Dogs Says You Can Earn

Brand claim

Just Dogs's own claim โ€” no evidence given. These are not FranchiseChuno's estimates or a promise of earnings; ask existing franchisees what they actually make.

PaybackMonths until cumulative profit equals what you invested.
36 months

The franchise page claims 'Payback within 3 years of business' and 'First year positive ROI' with no percentage, sample size or outlet figures. The two claims sit awkwardly together (a first-year positive return alongside a three-year payback) and are unverified brand claims.

    Just Dogs nears Rs 100 Cr revenue in FY24, losses balloon

    Entrackr, citing the company's financial statement from the Registrar of Companies, reported that Just Dogs' operating revenue rose 32% to Rs 94 crore in FY24 from Rs 71 crore, while its loss widened to Rs 11 crore from Rs 6 lakh. Pet food was over 70% of revenue and service income fell to Rs 16 crore from Rs 17.5 crore. This is the company's result, not outlet-level data.

    Inc42's company-data profile lists a venture round dated 1 Mar 2022 (US$7 million or more) and a loss for FY25. We did not read the underlying filing, so we publish no figures from this profile; the Entrackr report above, which cites the FY24 registrar filing, is the only financial figure shown.

About the Brand

Brand USP

Pet food, accessories, pharmacy and grooming-spa stores run from Ahmedabad since 2011, per the brand.

HeadquartersAhmedabad, Gujarat
Just Dogs is an Ahmedabad-based pet-care retailer selling pet food, accessories and pharmacy items online and in stores, with grooming spas, training and pet events. Its store locator lists 37 outlets on 2 Nov 2026 across Maharashtra, Gujarat, Karnataka, Haryana, Delhi, Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Telangana and Tamil Nadu. The brand's own pages disagree on size: the franchise page says 40+ outlets, the site footer says 50+ stores, and a separate franchise microsite says 35+. The franchise page states an investment of Rs 40-60 lakh 'excluding rentals brokerage and deposits and infrastructure capex', a Rs 6 lakh franchise or brand fee, a 7% royalty (the page does not say on gross or net sales), a 3-year duration and 1,000-3,000 sq ft of space. It claims payback within 3 years and a positive return in the first year, without any outlet-level figures. The page says a Franchise Disclosure Document is sent after a confidential profile is received. A separate 'Alliance Partner' format is mentioned on the franchise microsite with no cost or terms published. What to watch: the stated Rs 40-60 lakh leaves out rent, deposits and infrastructure capex, the largest items, so we show no headline investment and the real outlay is higher and unpublished. The locator does not say which outlets are franchised and which are company-run. The brand says it has been franchising for 7 years while another page says 'Since 2011' and '15+ years'. Press based on registrar filings reported a Rs 11 crore loss in FY24 on about Rs 94 crore of revenue; that is the company's result, not an outlet's, and a franchisor's financials say nothing about what a franchisee earns. Talk to existing franchisees about real sales and costs before committing.
