How can I make slimes unable to despawn? [duplicate]

I am making a 'pet shop' and I am selling cats dogs and slimes. Of course, the cats and dogs don't de-spawn, but slimes do.

I tried to gave them names (using name tags) and I thought that would work, but it didn't. Does anyone know another way of stopping them from despawning?

This cannot be done in survival unless it is withing a 128 block radius as stated. You can achieve this in creative mode using the tag: "{PersistenceRequired:1}". This can be manually added to a mob using /entitydata.

How do you keep slimes from Despawning?

Like most other hostile mobs, slimes do not spawn within 24 blocks (spherical) of any player, despawn over time if no player is within 32 blocks, and despawn instantly if no player is within the despawn radius (128 blocks in Java Edition, 44 to 128 blocks in Bedrock Edition depending on simulation distance [verify]).
