- Fevara plc is an international pure-play specialist in the manufacturing and provision of research-proven, value-added livestock supplements. The company develops, manufactures, and markets a wide range of nutritional animal supplements including branded feed licks, blocks, bagged minerals, and boluses designed for cattle, sheep, goats, deer, and horses. Key product brands include SmartLic®, HorsLic®, Tracesure®, Megalix®, Megastart®, and Megamins®. Fevara's product portfolio focuses on improving livestock health, productivity, fertility, and overall farm profitability, with products tailored to perform reliably in various climates and extensive grazing systems worldwide.
Fevara operates primarily in extensive, grazing-based food systems across more than 20 countries, targeting farmers seeking to enhance resource efficiency and sustainable agriculture. The company has seven manufacturing sites globally. Founded in 1831, Fevara is headquartered in Carlisle, United Kingdom, and employs over 600 people. It serves diverse geographic markets including the UK, North America, and international agricultural regions.
In 2025, Fevara undertook a significant strategic transformation, including the completion of the sale of its engineering division for approximately £75 million to focus solely on its agriculture business. The company rebranded from Carr's Group plc to Fevara plc in September 2025, reflecting this refined focus as a pure-play global agriculture business. Recent major developments include forming a strategic manufacturing partnership with Vétalis, enhancing its global new product development program with increased R&D investment, and acquiring Domino Industria E Comercio LTDA to further expand in new growth markets. Operational excellence and cost improvement initiatives have also been introduced to boost margin and profitability.
Fevara’s strategy emphasizes enhancing margins within its retained portfolio, driving profitable commercial growth in core business units, and expanding into new extensive grazing-based markets through organic growth and targeted acquisitions. Its research-based products are backed by university collaborations ensuring scientific validation of livestock health benefits, supporting sustainable and resilient food production worldwide.
