We CompoundVeterinaryMedicines
V-Tech was established in 2003 in Midrand, South Africa, by veterinarians Dr Johan Oosthuyse and Dr David Gerber. Being veterinarians themselves, they identified the desperate call for veterinary compounded medicines.
Following the significant investment of time, expertise and capital, V-Tech was born to answer this plea.
Today, V-Tech is the largest veterinary compounding pharmacy in South Africa and trusted by many veterinarians and animal caregivers for its reliability, well-managed supply chains, and long-term customer relationships. Our South African production site consists of 2500sqm of world class facilities with two pharmacies and one contract manufacturing plant equipped to produce Stock Remedies.
