France · Independent, animal health only
Virbac is a French animal health group founded in 1968 by a veterinarian. It describes itself as an independent pharmaceutical company dedicated exclusively to animal health. The business is organised into a Farm Animal segment and a Companion Animal segment. On the farm side it serves cattle, pigs and aquaculture, while its companion animal business covers cats and dogs.
Virbac's portfolio spans vaccines, parasiticides, antibiotics and other veterinary medicines, as well as diagnostics. On cattle and pig farms, vaccines protect animals ahead of disease challenges, and parasiticides control internal and external parasites that hold back growth and performance. Fish farms rely on similar disease prevention. Farmers and their veterinarians compare products by indication, by how they are given to the animals and by how they fit into the existing herd care programme.
Size of the business
Virbac's group revenue in 2025 was approximately EUR 1.465 billion, covering both its farm animal and companion animal businesses.
What does the company offer?
Virbac offers vaccines, parasiticides and veterinary medicines, with solutions for cattle, pigs and aquaculture as well as companion animals.
How should a buyer make contact?
Virbac organises its business by country and business unit, and its website lists the local contacts for each market. Enquiries are handled most smoothly when they state the intended application, the scale of the project and the timing required.
