View company profile

Vetcove is is an eCommerce platform that enables veterinary hospitals to research products, compare prices and what's in stock among vendors, and buy from one central location. It's like Trivago for veterinary hospitals to buy their pharmaceuticals, biologics, equipment, and supplies from all of their veterinary vendors.

Using Vetcove, veterinary hospitals cut ordering time 50-70%, and save thousands of dollars per year by ordering the right products from the right sources. It eases many of the frustrations related to inventory management and procurement like backorders, hard-to-find items, and sourcing generic alternatives, and reduces complexity for veterinary purchasers through consolidation.

Vetcove lists more than 150,000 SKUs from more than 2,100 manufacturers. Clinics can buy from all the major veterinary distributors, as well as direct from manufacturers, compounding pharmacies, and diagnostic laboratories.

Here's how it works: Vet hospitals search one unified and user-friendly catalog with all products in the entire industry. For each item in the catalog, they can view their hospital's own'​ pricing and the stock status from each vendor, as well as promotions, historical purchase information, and community-provided insights and discussion. Clinics can also manage all of their connected vendors'​ shopping carts from one screen, and create purchase lists across vendors.

In a world where consumers can easily compare pricing online, our mission is to use technology to give control back to the veterinarian. We're here to help practice owners and their staff stay profitable amid this challenging economic environment.

Since launching in late 2015, Vetcove has grown to become the preferred procurement platform of more than 10,000 veterinary hospitals, or over 1 in 3 vet hospitals in the United States. We're incredibly proud to be having such a positive impact on the veterinary profession.
