Join VP

There are two criteria to become a Veterinary Purchasing shareholder:

Licensed to practice veterinary medicine in Ontario.

Have sole or part ownership in an Ontario-accredited facility.

While shareholder veterinarians collectively own the corporation, VP does not restrict sales to just shareholder accounts. You are welcome to open a non-shareholder account as a licensed facility and begin ordering with us!
