Getting To Know: Naman from South Melbourne Market Pet Shop

Published 22 October 2025
What started as a part-time job while studying has turned into a dream career for Naman, the proud owner of South Melbourne Market Pet Shop.

After moving to Australia, Naman worked at the pet shop for about four years before pursuing a role in the corporate world. But the Market - and its vibrant community - had left a lasting impression. So, when the previous owner decided to sell the business, Naman didn’t hesitate. He quit his corporate job and jumped at the chance to make the Market his permanent home.

Four years on, Naman has grown the shop to meet the ever-changing needs of his customers (and their furry friends!). From smaller food bag options to a curated range of healthy, human-grade treats and locally made brands, he’s passionate about providing quality and care for every pet. You’ll also find a huge selection of toys, beds, scratchers, clothing and harnesses in store.

Next time you’re at the Market, stop by to say hello - Naman will be there with a smile (and maybe a treat or two for your furry friend)!

Visit Naman at South Melbourne Market Pet Shop at Stall 105 in Aisle G.

Open from 8am every Wednesday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
