Mexico Veterinary Medicine Market Trends:

Rising Demand for Companion Animal Healthcare

Mexico is undergoing a marked transformation in pet ownership, with nearly 70% of households now having at least one pet, predominantly dogs and cats. This rise is primarily attributed to changing family structures, growing urbanization, and increased emotional attachment to pets. As more owners begin to view pets as family members, there is a greater willingness to invest in their health and well-being, which is propelling Mexico veterinary medicine market growth. The trend is also resulting in a growing market for therapeutic drugs, nutritional supplements, antiparasitics, and diagnostic services. Additionally, pet insurance is slowly gaining traction, further supporting the ability of pet owners to afford veterinary treatments. Pharmaceutical companies are diversifying product portfolios to include pet-specific formulations, flavorings, and administration formats. Furthermore, the expansion of specialized veterinary clinics, pet hospitals, and mobile veterinary units is also reinforcing access to professional pet healthcare, particularly in major urban centers such as Mexico City, Monterrey, and Guadalajara, where pet humanization trends are on the rise.

Expansion of Livestock Production and Preventive Veterinary Practices

Mexico’s livestock sector, including cattle, poultry, and swine, continues to be a significant part of the country’s agricultural output and export earnings. Industry reports indicate that national livestock production reached 25.1 Million Metric Tons (Mt) in 2023, marking a 2.0% year-on-year increase from 2022. This steady growth is being driven by heightened global and domestic consumption of animal protein, prompting producers to scale up operations and adopt more structured animal health practices. The sector is increasingly embracing preventive veterinary medicine to support higher yields and meet international sanitary standards, which is positively impacting the Mexico veterinary medicine market outlook. There is also increased government oversight and private sector involvement in monitoring and controlling zoonotic diseases. Routine vaccinations, antiparasitic regimens, and farm-level biosecurity protocols are becoming integral to herd and flock management strategies. In addition to this, modernized commercial farms are increasingly adopting herd health management programs that integrate diagnostics, immunization schedules, and antimicrobial stewardship. These practices are accelerating the need for effective, safe, and affordable veterinary medications. Besides this, the growth of feedlots, vertically integrated farming systems, and export-focused meat production is incentivizing large-scale purchases of veterinary drugs and biologics. These factors are augmenting Mexico veterinary medicine market share.
