In another strategic diversification, Drools is venturing into the Small Animal Pharmaceutical arena with the launch of ‘Drools Veterinary Health.’ The launch was facilitated by Malika Arora at the Federation of Asian Small Animal Veterinary Association (FASAVA) Congress 2023, one of the biggest Veterinary events held at Hotel Westin Mumbai.
Dr. Shashank Sinha, CEO and Veterinarian at Drools Pet Food Pvt. Ltd., “At Drools, we are deeply committed to the holistic well-being of pets. Our ‘Drools Vet Clinic Upgradation Scheme’ and the launch of ‘Drools Veterinary Health’ highlight our unwavering dedication to enhancing pet healthcare and providing pets with the best possible care. By extending these enhancements to veterinary clinics nationwide, we are ensuring that pet parents across the country can access top-tier pet healthcare services. The introduction of ‘Drools Veterinary Health’ underscores Drools’ dedication to comprehensive pet care and underscores our vision to become a holistic partner within the pet healthcare ecosystem. Both of our pioneering initiatives are designed to ensure that our furry companions receive the care, attention, and love they truly deserve.”
President of Pet Practitioners Association of Mumbai (PPAM), Dr Dhananjay Bapat, said, “Drools is spearheading the liaison of India’s pet care and vet services with the international veterinary community.
