Musti Group was founded in 1988 in Finland and entered the Swedish market in 2012. Musti has established a strong platform from which it has driven market expansion on a mission to become the leading pan-Nordic group. In early 2015, the company expanded its presence in Sweden after acquiring the franchiser of pet specialty chains “Arken Zoo” and “Djurmagazinet”. The add-on also included “Trimmis” grooming salons and the veterinary chain “Vettris”. In late 2016, Musti Group opened its first stores in Norway. In 2017, Musti acquired digital competences through the acquisitions of VetZoo and Animail strengthening in-house developer team.

The successful and well-developed concept is based on a wide and curated assortment of pet food, accessories and services in combination with a strong culture of dedicated, knowledgeable and service minded employees. Today, Musti serves over one million loyal customers signed up to its loyalty club.
