What Optima Life Science does
Optima Life Sciences Pvt. Ltd. is a Pune-based, privately held animal health and nutrition company founded in 2010 that develops, manufactures, and markets feed additives, bio-security products, and precision liquid dosing systems for the poultry and broader livestock industry. Its product portfolio spans five feed additive categories (cost-effective performance, gut health, enzyme, mineral, and feed quality milling solutions), a bio-security line of disinfectants and water sanitation products (including RECTIFIER, NEWGEN AQUA, OLS-8, OPTILIN ADVANCE, and OPTIGENE EXTRA), and a proprietary dosing equipment line (XylamaxR plus Optima MLD, SLD, and MGLD series) built around PLC/HMI-controlled load-cell-based liquid dosing for feed mill applications.
The company supplements its product business with OptiServe, a service platform offering Near Infrared Spectroscopy feed analysis, wet chemistry, microbiology, drinking water analysis, feed formulation support, milling solutions, and hatchery audits. Under Executive Chairman Vinay Kulkarni, Optima operates a B2B sales-led go-to-market organized by regional zones, distributing directly to poultry producers, feed mills, and integrators in more than 24 countries across South Asia, Southeast Asia, the Middle East, Africa, Europe, and Latin America through wholly-owned subsidiaries Optima Global FZ LLC (UAE) and Optima International BV (Netherlands), and partnerships with four international principals. Revenue is generated through one-time product sales (additives, bio-security), hardware sales (dosing systems), and professional services (OptiServe), with no publicly disclosed pricing.
A new cutting-edge manufacturing plant was inaugurated in Jejuri, Maharashtra on October 15, 2024, expanding production capacity. The company holds FAMI-QS, GMP, HACCP, and ISO 22000:2018 certifications, supporting cross-border feed trade credibility. In June 2026 Optima announced its first acquisition (Cure, undisclosed terms), marking a transition toward inorganic growth alongside its previously organic expansion.
