It is estimated that Australians spend around $A2.6bn on veterinary services every year. National Veterinary Care aims to capitalise on this via a sharemarket float, which is slated for July 2015. The company is headed by Tomas Steenackers, a former general manager at listed veterinary services group Greencross. Steenackers’ firm comprises one veterinary clinic in Brisbane at present, but it plans to buy an additional 34 clinics if the IPO proceeds.
