Poulpharm and Mercolab Forge Strategic Partnership to Strengthen Global Animal Health Services

We are pleased to announce a strategic partnership between Mercolab, a leading provider of veterinary diagnostic and laboratory services across Latin America, and Poulpharm BV, a Belgian-based contract research organization specializing in (pre)clinical studies and high-quality laboratory diagnostics, operating in Europe and Asia.

What exactly does this collaboration mean?

This partnership brings together two organizations with complementary expertise and a shared vision: to deliver integrated, science-driven solutions to the animal health industry and accelerate innovation in the global food production chain.

By combining Mercolab’s strong regional presence and deep understanding of Latin American animal production systems with Poulpharm’s proven track record in applied research, bacteriology, parasitology and virology, we aim to offer contract research services tailored to the unique needs of local producers, while meeting the highest international standards.

Our collaboration is built on the belief that local knowledge paired with global scientific capabilities can drive real impact. Together, we will co-develop and execute contract research projects in Latin America, addressing industry-relevant questions in poultry, swine, and other livestock sectors — supporting not only regional markets, but also contributing to global advancements in animal health, product development, and food safety.
The synergy between our organizations allows us to:
  • Expand R&D opportunities across Latin America with a clear path to global relevance
  • Provide robust technical and scientific support to veterinary pharma and feed companies
  • Offer localized trial execution with international study design and data quality standards
  • Bring innovation to market more efficiently through joint expertise and infrastructure
This partnership represents more than just an expansion of services — it’s a commitment to work together, aligning strengths and values to solve complex challenges in a dynamic and demanding industry.
 

We look forward to the exciting opportunities this collaboration will bring for our clients, teams and partners worldwide!
