*About us*

Founded in 1981, Penn Veterinary Supply was created out of the belief that there is a better way to supply veterinarians with products and services. This belief remains at the core of everything we do. We proudly remain a family owned and operated business, free of corporate ownership. This enables us to best meet the needs of our customers on an individual basis without the pressure of answering to shareholders. We strive to set a higher standard of servicing the veterinary profession by focusing on our Power in Partnership model:

* Penn Vet is a *Family-Owned Business* that values our *PEOPLE* and yours.

* Our team is dedicated to providing *SOLUTIONS* for the *veterinarians and entire staff at independent, privately held veterinary hospitals*.

* We aim to be a *true business partner* that strives to consistently exceed your *SERVICE* expectations.

* We select partners who *advocate for the importance of the veterinarian's recommendation* of *PRODUCTS* that provide quality, savings, and value.

Penn Vet was born in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, and has since grown to open branches in Michigan, Florida, and North Carolina.
