The largest veterinary group in Croatia, Vetti Group, has continued its expansion by acquiring the Veterinary Clinic More in Šibenik, known for its top-notch equipment and specialized services such as endoscopy and magnetic resonance imaging. This further strengthens Vetti’s presence on the Adriatic coast and marks a continuation of the intensive investment cycle through which the group is consolidating the veterinary market in Croatia and the region.

As a reminder, Vetti also acquired Vet Planet Clinic in Belgrade this autumn, marking its first venture outside the borders of Croatia. Additionally, four new domestic members have joined the group: Holypet in Zagreb, Veterinary Clinic Gospić, Veterinary Station Zaprešić, and the Specialist Veterinary Practice Dogtor in Samobor. Today, Vetti comprises 19 members, over 300 employees, and operates at more than 30 locations.

Growth is not solely based on acquisitions but also on the development of existing members. For instance, Feliks Veterinary Practice in Virovitica moved into a space four times larger than its previous 300 square meters, while construction is underway in Split for a new veterinary hospital in Dračevac, which will have 750 square meters, four operating rooms, and eight examination rooms. The doors are expected to open sometime during the winter.

The group positions itself as a leader in enhancing the quality of veterinary services in Croatia and the region, with a strong emphasis on investing in professionals through the Vetti Academy, onboarding programs, mentorship, and scholarships for students at the Veterinary Faculty in Zagreb. Recently, they have been joined by recognized specialists such as Tomislav Planinić (orthopedics) and Ana Petak, a European specialist in dermatology, as well as new young doctors with outstanding academic results.

Vetti Group is majority-owned by a fund established by Provectus Capital Partners, an investment firm awarded in 2023 at the Bestinvest.hr conference as Private Equity Investor of the Year.
