Although CEVA has grown to become a global company, we have managed to retain the spirit of a small to medium-sized enterprise. We owe our existence to the farmers, pet owners and veterinarians who support us. As a result, we are dedicated to providing them with the best possible products and services.
The bond between humans and animals forms an essential part of life. We believe it should be embraced and reflected in science as well. We aim to provide products and services that not only protect and improve the lives of animals, but ultimately the well-being of every person in our global community.
OUR MISSION
Ceva believes that a new approach to world health is required which goes beyond animal health.
Our new mission summarised in the slogan "Together, beyond animal health" has three fundamental principles, each of which address concerns over broader social issues:
Help to feed a growing population
The issue of ensuring food resources and security is vital. At the current
time not everybody in the world has access to sufficient quantities of animal
protein. Sustainable intensive agriculture is and will become an increasingly
important part of the strategy to feed 9 billion people by 2050. As Ceva, we will continue to work with our partners involved in animal protein production to find ever more efficient ways of rearing, which place minimal stress on animals.
Combatting zoonoses
We are dedicated to combating zoonoses, which carry the threat of serious pandemics, particularly in a world of ever-increasing mobility. We want to underline the fact that the safety of food products has recently become a huge subject of public concern. Both existing and future biological products will help to ensure that we are able to provide safe, quality animal protein.
Promote the benefits of the essential link between humans and animals
Companion animals are an important part of our lives, and can contribute greatly to the psychological and emotional well-being in our increasingly urbanized society.
As our cities grow, so will the role of the veterinary profession in educating people how best to live in harmony with their pets.
This threefold mission is an attainable ideal, but is beyond the limits of what one company can achieve alone. This is why we wish to publicly debate our approach, as it is only together with other health professionals that we will be able to meet the future demands of world health.
