What KONIVET GmbH does

KONIVET GmbH is a privately-held German veterinary products company founded in September 2009 and headquartered in Essen (Oldenburg district), South Oldenburg. The company manufactures and distributes specialty supplementary feeds, dietary feeds, and veterinary medicines exclusively to veterinarians under a Vet Only model, with end-usage spanning livestock (cattle, pigs, poultry, horses) and small animals (dogs). Its product portfolio is organized into species-specific sub-brands (KoniHorse, KoniPet) plus a dedicated Bio-Organic Natur line certified under EU Regulations 834/2007 and 889/2008, and includes a separate veterinary medicines catalog of antibiotics, antiparasitics, NSAIDs, and hormones. The company also offers Private Label and Private Mixture services, allowing veterinary practices to commission custom-branded or custom-formulated supplements.

KONIVET operates a relationship-driven, sales-led go-to-market with at least seven regional sales managers covering all major German states plus Austria, supported by a Head of Sales, dedicated order-acceptance staff, an export sales role, and a Head of Business Development. Logistics are centralized from a single South Oldenburg warehouse, with same-day local delivery and 24-hour nationwide German shipping. Revenues are generated through one-time product sales (supplements and pharmaceuticals) plus professional services fees for private-label and custom formulation work; pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed.

The company is managed by three Managing Directors (Udo Tegeler, Stefan Niemeyer, Lukas Middendorf), holds the QS, A-Futter, Bio-Organic, GMP+ V2020, and wholesale medicinal product permits required to operate in its regulated categories, and sources A-feed raw materials exclusively from certified partner MIAVIT GmbH. KONIVET is independent, with no disclosed parent company, institutional investors, subsidiaries, or funding rounds.
