More details
Vetoquinol’s story began in 1933 in Lure, in northeastern France. At that time, Joseph Frechin, a visionary pharmacist, developed a revolutionary oxyquinoline-based antiseptic to treat animals. This product, which would give the company its name, marked the beginning of a veterinary pharmaceutical success story. Very quickly, Vetoquinol specialized in the design and production of animal medications, meeting the growing needs of veterinarians and livestock farmers.
By the 1970s, the company was experiencing rapid growth. Its product line expanded to include more than 250 therapeutic solutions, covering fields as diverse as dermatology, reproduction, cardiology, and antiparasitic treatments. This diversification allowed Vetoquinol to establish its reputation in the French market and begin its first phase of international expansion.
Vetoquinol’s drive toward internationalization gained significant momentum in the 1980s with the opening of subsidiaries in the Netherlands, Ireland, and Belgium. This expansion intensified in the following decades:
Today, Vetoquinol operates in 24 countries, with more than 2,500 employees and a global network of 60 distributors. This strategic geographic footprint allows the brand to work closely with veterinarians and livestock producers, ensuring rapid distribution and optimal product support.
For nearly a century, Vetoquinol has been committed to developing innovative solutions to improve animals’ quality of life and simplify the work of veterinarians and livestock producers. Its ambition is summed up in a powerful mission: “To enrich people’s lives by dedicating ourselves to animal health and well-being.”
This commitment translates into a lasting relationship of trust with industry professionals. By attentively listening to market needs and adopting an innovation-centered approach, Vetoquinol develops effective, safe, and easy-to-administer treatments.
