Maxi Zoo France's expansion continues month after month. In May alone, six new stores opened. These are located across the country, in Montbéliard (Doubs), Saint-Pierre-des-Corps (Indre-et-Loire), Bourg-en-Bresse (Ain), Nice Saint-Isidore (Alpes-Maritimes), Cusset (Allier) and Luxeuil-les-Bains (Haute-Saône). After several months of closure due to a fire in the neighbouring unit, the Maxi Zoo store in Bordeaux-Bouliac (Gironde) has finally reopened.
The franchise chain has also announced that it came out on top in two surveys. According to a study conducted by OpinionWay in November 2024, a representative sample of 1 082 people from the French population were asked about pet store brands. The result: Maxi Zoo is the favourite brand. In a separate survey by Statista in 2024, Maxi Zoo was also ranked among the best brands in the service quality and pet shop categories for the seventh consecutive year.
