Smithland Pet & Garden Centers to close all locations after 40 years in business
NORTH BRANFORD, Conn. (WWLP) – Smithland Pet & Garden Centers has announced that it will be closing all 13 of its stores in western Massachusetts and Connecticut by the end of June. After 40 years of providing pet, garden, and backyard supplies to the region, the company announced on Monday its decision to close down all retail locations. Citing persistent inflation, economic challenges, and fierce market competition, Smithland's parent company, CT Gardens, LLC, ultimately chose to liquidate the business. How this Chicopee bar is celebrating Cinco de Mayo Formerly known as myAgway and Dave's Soda and Pet City, Smithland has been a resource for a variety of home and animal products in New England. For decades, the stores served as community hubs where customers could shop for pet supplies, garden goods, bird feed, and more. CT Gardens, LLC CEO John Atkins said that businesses will plan to close between now and the end of June. 'Since 1985, Dave's Soda and Pet City, myAgway, and Smithland have been more than a place to shop,' Atkins said in a statement. 'They've been places where pets were pampered, gardens were grown, wild birds were fed, and neighbors became friends.' A Customer Appreciation Sale is being held at all Smithland locations from May 6 to May 11, with 10% off all non-sale items. This event coincides with the store's annual Mother's Day Sale and serves as a lead-in to the upcoming liquidation sales. 'We hope you'll stop by, say goodbye, and take advantage of some wonderful savings during this time,' Atkins said. 'Most importantly, we hope you know how deeply thankful we are to serve you over these many years.' A list of all the Smithland locations set to close are as follows: Smithland Pet & Garden Center : Agawam Smithland Pet & Garden Center – Agway: Bethel, Conn.
