VIRBAC
Focusing on animal health, from the beginning
In the 1960s, the various preparations manufactured by human pharmaceutical laboratories at that time did not make it possible to treat all the animal diseases. In 1968, while these major groups were looking to invest in animal health, Pierre-Richard Dick, a veterinary doctor in Nice, drew upon his training at the Pasteur Institute to develop new medications. He founded Virbac with a desire to provide veterinarians, farmers, and pet owners worldwide with a set of innovative solutions to fight animal diseases.
Now present in more than 100 countries, Virbac has maintained its independence and its essence. Linking the needs of caregivers with the latest technological advances, our innovation ecosystem delivers a practical range of products and services to diagnose, prevent, and treat most pathologies, all while improving the quality of life for animals. Thanks to our offer, supported by a manufacturing base that meets the highest international quality standards, Virbac has been forging personalized relationships with veterinarians, farmers, and pet owners in each country for more than 50 years. Through these privileged partnerships, in which societal, health, and environmental issues intersect, Virbac contributes day after day to shape the future of animal health.
