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. 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.
