- Business or brandWoofie's of Scottsdale & Paradise Valley
- Parent platformWoofie's
Woofie's of Scottsdale & Paradise Valley is listed by an official source as part of Woofie's.
Evidence [1] - Current parent or platformAuthority Brands
Authority Brands is the current investment firm connected to Woofie's. Woofie's is verified as a franchised pet-care brand owned by Authority Brands, with the acquisition stated in a direct acquisition announcement and corroborated by later independent franchise reporting; the brand's own materials also describe Woofie's Pet Ventures, LLC as the franchising company and the site's FDD-related materials identify Authority Brands as the parent. The mapped local entities are supported by the official Woofie's location pages or official location-specific pages as franchise locations, so they are classified as local franchisee operations rather than separately owned brands. No credible evidence in the gathered sources establishes a different controlling owner, and no undisclosed minority stake is presented as a control claim.
