Swedish vet app launches website in UK after pandemic pet boom
A Swedish digital vet service has launched an e-commerce offering in the UK.
After a pandemic-inspired pet boom, which has seen the likes of Pet At Home benefit, First Vet is planning to launch a website offering thousands of products.
The products will be for sick and healthy pets including dogs, cats, rabbits, small animals and birds.
David Prien, CEO & co-founder of FirstVet said: “The pet boom that we’ve seen over the past two years has changed the way we view and need pet care forever. I spend more time thinking about how to best take care of my dogs than myself and I’m not alone in this, with FirstVet seeing a rise in demand for a holistic, trusted approach to pet care.”
FirstVet’s app launched in the UK in 2019, with online vets able to provide on-demand 24/7 help to pet owners with their issues.
Its e-commerce platform will primarily sell products recommended by vets.
