EGAVET

What EGAVET does

EGAVET (legal name: EGAVET For Trade and Veterinary Services; previously known as the Arab Egyptian Group for Trade and Veterinary Services) is a privately held Egyptian B2B distributor founded in 1992 and headquartered at 106 King Feisal Street, Giza. The company represents 11 multinational research-based manufacturers — including Norbrook, AB Vista, Adisseo, Lallemand, QYH, Pancosma, Lanxess, Jefo, Celtic Sea Minerals, Phosphea, and Bonilait Proteins — and resells their animal health and nutrition products into the Egyptian market. Its portfolio spans veterinary pharmaceuticals (e.g., Alamycin, Noromectin, Bovaclox, Betamox LA), veterinary vaccines (Avian Influenza H5N1 Re-1/Re-5, Newcastle Disease, combination vaccines from QYH), feed additives (phytases, xylanases, mycotoxin binders, yeast probiotics, organic trace minerals, marine minerals, monocalcium phosphate, fat-filled whey milk replacers), and biosecurity disinfectants (Aldekol, Quatovet, Mentofin). The company also operates an in-house Near Infrared (NIR) spectroscopy laboratory that provides rapid (30–60 second), non-destructive quantitative analysis of major constituents in feed and agricultural products without sample preparation.

The company organises its offering along three end-user verticals — poultry (primary), ruminants, and aquaculture — with each vertical addressed by a dedicated set of solutions (e.g., chelated minerals, fiber digestion aids, milk replacers, and rumen buffers for ruminants; anti-microbials, digestion enhancers, vitamin C, and water-quality products for aquaculture). Products are distributed via a direct sales department and a field-sales network targeting commercial farms and large livestock operations in Egypt. EGAVET generates revenue on a transaction / resale margin basis from its distribution activities; pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed, and no SaaS, subscription, or licensing revenue is present. The company reaches customers primarily through industry events (Agrena in Egypt, VIV Middle East Africa in Dubai) and principal-led technical seminars, and is staffed by a Technical Department (Dr. Sadek Ahmed Sadek), a Sales Department (Eng. Ahmed Mobarak), and a former General Manager (Dr. Ibrahim Hassan) recognised with a 2011 Nutriad GOLDEN Partner Award. EGAVET is independently operated with no disclosed parent company, private equity backing, or institutional investors.
