Wild Birds Unlimited Celebrates the Opening of its Milestone 300th Store

Wild Birds Unlimited has been raising the bar in the bird feeding and watching industries with the help of its hard working franchisees for over three decades. And now, the brand is celebrating a major milestone—its 300th location is officially open for business in West Albuquerque, New Mexico.

“Our main focus at the Wild Birds Unlimited Franchise Support Center has always been on the success of each individual franchisee and their ability to meet their own goals. That’s why it’s so exciting to see this 300th store open its doors for business,” said Paul Pickett, Wild Birds Unlimited’s chief development officer. “At the end of the day, this is another store in our proven franchise system. But it’s great to be able to celebrate this milestone that ultimately supports Wild Birds Unlimited’s mission of bringing people and nature together.”

Leading the way at Wild Birds Unlimited’s 300th store are franchisees Cathy Fleischacker and Pam Dymsza. The couple first decided to look into franchising with the brand because they were searching for a way to combine their dreams of business ownership with their love of being outdoors. But the more they learned about Wild Birds Unlimited, the more they realized just how unique its model is, and how many future opportunities it could provide.

“Wild Birds Unlimited has truly carved out its own space in the franchising industry—its supportive system feels like a family even though it’s a widely known business,” said Fleischacker. “Plus, the brand really knows its customers. Bird feeding is one of the biggest hobbies in the country, and no one understands it better than the Wild Birds team.”

That team is another thing that makes Wild Bird Unlimited stand out from the crowd. The brand’s 300th location has been open for a little over a month, and so far, multiple Franchise Support Center members and other local franchise owners have already reached out to make sure things are running smoothly.

That positive business atmosphere isn’t going anywhere—as Wild Birds Unlimited builds off the momentum of its 300th location by adding even more franchises to its system, the brand will continue to foster an environment that encourages collaboration and ongoing support at both the local and corporate levels.

“The people behind Wild Birds Unlimited know how to talk the talk and walk the walk. They find what your core strengths are, narrow in on the things you need help with, and tailor their support system to your individual needs,” said Fleischacker. “Wild Birds Unlimited has perfected its franchise system, and they know how to help their franchisees turn their business ownership goals into a successful reality.”
