Welcome to Partnar Animal Health Online. Thanks for visiting!
Partnar Animal Health was founded in 2004 by Greg Shewfelt. As a science graduate from the University
of Guelph, and with an MBA from Durham University in the UK, Greg's education coupled with a track
record of success in the global animal health industry provided the platform in which to launch this new
venture.
Developing partnerships has been a key to this company's success. All people and companies have
specific areas of knowledge and skills wherein they excel. By partnering with others, Partnar Animal
Health has been able to access knowledge and capabilities far beyond that of which a small company on
its own could be capable of.
Partnar was initially focused on marketing products for bovine and equine embryo transfer in North
America. To support these market activities, the company has warehouses located in both St. Joseph,
Missouri and Ilderton, Ontario.
Partnar commenced its own research and development program in 2006 and commissioned a purpose
built sterile manufacturing suite in 2007. The first products flowing out of its research program was
the emP3 Complete Embryo Transfer Media range followed by CanFreeze (freeze extender for Canine
Semen).
In Canada, seeing opportunities arising from industry consolidation, the company broadened its market
scope and began to register and market veterinary products that larger animal health companies had
discontinued. With this core of registered veterinary drugs, Partnar further expanded its product
offering by partnering with other manufacturers looking for distribution in the Canadian market. As a
result of the success Partnar has enjoyed by implementing these strategies, the company now boasts a
sales force of six people covering Canada from coast to coast.
