The bottom line

Only about 25% of Pet and Pet Supplies Retailers is information work today — the rest is physical, and moves slowly. The exposure is concentrated in the back office: the books, the paperwork, the scheduling, the marketing.

Why: With no child components seeded, this score relies on the NAICS industry lens and description. Retailing pet supplies and live animals mandates significant physical labor, including stocking heavy bags of food, maintaining store environments, and providing hands-on animal care. While supported by point-of-sale and inventory software, the core value delivery is tied to the physical handling of goods and pets, placing this industry in the physical band.
