A national pet store chain will open a State College area location this week.
Pet Supplies Plus will open at 9 a.m. Friday at 277 Northland Center in Ferguson Township, a spokesperson confirmed. The location is the former home of Koko FitClub.
The store is locally owned and operated by Peter Manbeck, a longtime securities lawyer turned entrepreneur who is opening his first Pet Supplies Plus location.
“After many years as a lawyer, I am looking forward to this new chapter where I will be interacting with the State College community every day,” Manbeck said in a statement. “Giving pet owners everything they need to keep their pets healthy and happy is a very fulfilling prospect that I could not wait to get involved in.”
