WILMINGTON, DE, UNITED STATES, September 8, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- The global Veterinary Contract Research Organization (CRO) Market is undergoing a period of strong growth, supported by technological innovation, increasing investment in animal health research, and the rising cultural and economic importance of companion animals. According to industry analysis, the market was valued at US$ 770.8 Mn in 2024 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 7.1% between 2025 and 2035, crossing US$ 1.6 Bn by the end of 2035.
Veterinary CROs are emerging as indispensable partners for pharmaceutical and biotechnology firms, providing specialized research services ranging from preclinical studies and clinical trials to regulatory support and post-market surveillance. As animal health gains prominence due to zoonotic diseases and increasing pet ownership, CROs are positioned at the forefront of innovation, compliance, and global expansion.

Market Overview: Veterinary CROs support the research, development, and approval of veterinary products such as pharmaceuticals, vaccines, diagnostics, and medical devices. They offer services including toxicology testing, trial management, statistical analysis, regulatory affairs, and consultancy. With regulators such as the U.S. FDA and European Medicines Agency (EMA) imposing stringent standards, CROs provide the expertise and infrastructure required to accelerate approvals while maintaining compliance.
The market is shaped by a convergence of pet humanization, livestock productivity demands, global disease management, and biotechnological innovation, creating a robust growth outlook through 2035.
