The Vetoquinol saga started 90 years ago in the back office of the Frechin family pharmacy in Lure, Franche Comté (East of France).

Around the world all 2,500 members of Vetoquinol workforce participated in an international celebration of this anniversary on the same day. To celebrate this exceptional year with the 24 affiliates of the group, video conferences have been organized.
