Where we came from?

From what began purely as a life-long, cherished hobby the late Jannie La Grange and his wife Lettie opened the J A La Grange Birdpark in Boksburg in 1975.

The late Jannie La Grange, a one-time pigeon-racer and private bird keeper used to keep a collection of birds at home and noticed that more and more of his friends and their friends in turn would visit the house in order to look at his birds, hence the idea to open a bird park.

. . Late Jannie La Grange and his wife Lettie

Adjoining the bird park a large Pet Shop was set up to cater for all the bird lovers needs. Over the years this shop expand to include a state of the art Aquarium with tropical, coldwater and marine fish and became a Pet Hypermarket because every single item related to any domestic pet is available here.

By 1987 the trading side of the business became so big that a decision was made to conduct the retailing under the name Pet Masters. With the years all members of the La Grange household became involved in the business building it into the biggest Pet Shop group in the country. We now have the main branch in Boksburg and two other branches in Alberton and Pretoria.

In 1990 Jannie La Grange was killed in a tragic robbery on the premises. The company is now run by Lettie La Grange, Gerhard La Grange (Son), Adrian La Grange (Son) and Roelof Coertse (Son-in-law). All with years of experience in the pet trade.

With our wealth of knowledge and experience gained from the last twenty-five years we are able to offer advice concerning the breeding, rearing and general health and care of most domestic pets and fish. Pet Masters caters for every need of any domestic pet to the finest and smallest detail.
