Israel's Biogal-Galed Laboratories announced Tuesday that it has partnered with Eurovets Veterinary Suppliers to bring Biogal's veterinary diagnostic solutions to the UAE, Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, Oman, Kuwait, and Qatar.
According to one marketing report from 2019, while cats are preferred as pets in the UAE, the country has seen a growing rate of dog ownership in the past few years, due in part to a growing population of expatriates who are encouraging the trend of dog ownership in the country.
Biogal CEO Marcela Raisman said, "We are thrilled to announce that Eurovets has joined Biogal's ecosystem, and are proud to be among the first Israeli companies to form such an alliance following the Israel-UAE peace treaty.
"Together with Eurovets, we are showing support for the new agreement between the countries and can only hope it inspires other companies to do the same. Through our collaborative work together, we believe we'll create sustainable value for veterinarians worldwide and for their patients," Raisman added.
Eurovets shareholder Dr. Martin Wyness said that "by bringing together the industry leader in veterinary and diagnostic solutions with the leading veterinary supply and support solutions for the UAE's animal health industry, we are offering added value for customers, partners, and of course, for the patients themselves."
