BRAKKEコンサルティングの視点
It was great to see many of you at the WVC meeting this week in Las Vegas. While winning in the casinos is difficult, the quality of the meetings and the venue make almost everyone who attends WVC a winner.
Based on the attitudes and reports we hear from clients and others it appears that the industry is off to a nice start in 2015. The mix of new products and services being introduced when coupled with some long term recognized brands and products should allow for revenue increases in 2015.
We also learned of a number of new technologies in development that should provide for future revenue growth. It appears to us that 2015 will be growth year for many firms. Those without new products or services could struggle because it’s not obvious that neither companion animal numbers nor the number of veterinary visits is going to increase based on the data we see in various reports. We believe the food animal sector will be strong in most species.
Stay warm this weekend and keep your snow shovel handy!!
