Carr’s Group has entered into a manufacturing partnership with Vétalis for advanced sustainable livestock supplements, aiming to boost innovation and efficiency in the market starting Autumn 2025.
Carr’s Group plc, a global company specializing in sustainable livestock supplements, has entered into a strategic manufacturing partnership with French company Vétalis to develop an advanced range of Tracesure® boluses, with distribution scheduled from Autumn 2025.
The new partnership follows the strategic decision to close the ANIMAX production facility in June 2025 and enables the group to allocate more resources toward innovation and meeting the demands of a growing market, according to the announcement. Vétalis is a recognised expert in precision bolus supplementation technology and brings strong capabilities in developing science-backed solutions that support livestock health and sustainable farming practices.
Joshua Hoopes, Chief Executive Officer of Carr’s Group plc, commented: “This is a key strategic milestone as we reposition the group as a focused, pure-play agriculture business. Partnering with Vétalis enables us to build a more efficient platform for sustainable growth, while strengthening our customer offering and creating long-term value for shareholders.”
Carr’s Group highlights the partnership as marking pivotal step in its growth strategy by improving on-farm productivity which in turn supports sustainable global food security. By combining the group’s deep understanding of livestock nutrition with Vétalis’ advanced manufacturing, the partnership aims to propel innovation, drive operational efficiencies, and improve product delivery. The agreement is expected to deliver meaningful operational savings while reinforcing the market position of Tracesure® in the UK and Ireland.
