Our experienced sales representatives provide a value-added level of customer service and expertise in the regional characteristics and needs of their customers. Our business commenced operations in 1954 as part of a family-owned drug store business. Following a series of business combinations, we were renamed Walco International, Inc. in 1972. Over the last five years, we have had consistent growth and completed several acquisitions. We believe this growth is attributable to consolidation by our customers, the proliferation of generic animal health products, and our increased focus on sales and marketing.
