What Amerivet does

AMERIVET S.A.S. is a Colombian, family-owned B2B distributor of animal health and nutrition products for the livestock sector, founded in 1991 by Miguel Cruz and headquartered in Funza, Cundinamarca. The company serves Colombian poultry (avicultura) and swine (porcultura) producers with an integrated portfolio of biological, pharmacological, and nutritional solutions sourced through strategic alliances with 24+ international suppliers. Core offerings include non-antibiotic growth promoters using gradual-release intestinal technology, advanced compound delivery systems, recombinant vaccines for Marek's, Gumboro, Infectious Laryngotracheitis, and H5N1 Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza, intestinal and hepatic health solutions, Salmonella control products, natural environmental control extracts, and latest-generation pharmaceuticals including fosfomycin (FX/Formoteamicina) for swine.

The company serves 180+ national clients through a field sales team of Technical Commercial Executives organized by five Colombian geographic zones (Antioquia, Valle, Santanderes/North Coast, Central) and by species specialty (poultry vs. swine). A contact-based, consultative sales motion is reinforced by in-house technical capabilities including a doctoral-level nutrition specialist, a swine clinical pathologist, a biologics portfolio lead, an environmental portfolio manager, and a research role. Amerivet holds ISO 9001:2015 certification issued by SGS covering its integrated distribution processes, and operates with Christian-principles-based branding.

Commercially, Amerivet runs a one-time-sale B2B distribution model with non-public pricing and personalized solution design by specialized advisors. The company is actively soliciting strategic distribution partners for expansion into LATAM markets, has built internal organizational infrastructure including the Escuela de Liderazgo Santa Cruz leadership training program, and is positioning itself as the most disruptive, high-level enterprise in sustainable animal protein production in Colombia. Revenue mechanics rely on unit sales of distributed third-party-sourced products rather than licensing, subscriptions, or proprietary manufacturing.
