The veterinary contract manufacturing & research market is witnessing strong growth driven by demographic, economic, and technological factors. Rising demand for efficient and cost-effective drug development, testing, and manufacturing solutions is accelerating outsourcing across vaccines, biologics, and small-molecule therapeutics. Animal health companies, research institutions, and veterinary diagnostic laboratories are increasingly partnering with CDMOs and CROs to enhance R&D productivity, improve study quality, and shorten time-to-market. Technological advancements—such as AI-enabled predictive modeling, digitalized clinical trial management, automation in bioprocessing, and advanced analytical platforms—are transforming workflows and enabling more precise, data-driven decision-making. Additionally, the growing use of scalable single-use systems, improved quality management tools, and cloud-based data platforms is enhancing efficiency, flexibility, and regulatory compliance across the veterinary outsourcing ecosystem.
By product type, the medicines segment accounted for the largest market share in 2024.
In the veterinary contract manufacturing & research market, the medicines segment accounted for the largest market share in 2024. This dominance is primarily due to their core focus on animal health R&D and their account for the highest volume of outsourced development and manufacturing activities. The growing need for new therapeutics, such as antibiotics, pain management drugs, parasiticides, and treatments for chronic and infectious diseases, drives the continuous development of product pipelines among animal health companies. As regulations become more stringent and formulations grow more complex, companies increasingly rely on CDMOs and CROs for expertise in formulation, scale-up, analytical testing, and GMP-compliant production. This consistent and high demand for veterinary pharmaceuticals makes medicines the dominant product category in the market.
By end user, the startups & veterinary biotech firms segment is projected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period.
The startups & veterinary biotech firms segment is projected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period because they rely heavily on outsourcing to access advanced technologies, specialized expertise, and GMP-compliant facilities that they lack in-house. Their focus on innovative platforms—such as novel biologics, gene-based therapies, advanced formulations, and digital health tools—drives high demand for CDMO and CRO support across early-stage R&D, scale-up, and clinical studies. With strong investor interest and a surge in new pet health and livestock innovation ventures, these companies are rapidly increasing their outsourcing needs, fueling segment growth.
By region, North America held the largest market share in 2024.
In 2024, North America accounted for the largest share of the veterinary contract manufacturing & research market due to its strong presence of leading animal health companies, advanced R&D infrastructure, and high investment in veterinary therapeutics and biologics. The region benefits from robust regulatory frameworks, well-established GMP-compliant manufacturing capabilities, and widespread adoption of innovative technologies. High pet healthcare spending, significant owner awareness, and extensive presence of specialized CDMOs and CROs further reinforce North America’s dominant position in the global market.
