Table 8: Company Developments and Commercial Implications
| Evidence | Commercial effect | Buyer action |
|---|---|---|
| Virbac introduces Floragest soft chews with two prebiotics and two postbiotics to French veterinarians, September 2026 | A postbiotic gut chew enters the veterinary channel with a once-daily, 30-day regimen. | Clinics should ask for controlled data, because the published study had no control group. |
| Dinovite launches postbiotic dental chews, January 2026 | Postbiotic claims extend from gut to oral care in a chew format. | Retail buyers should ask for trial data behind oral claims before listing. |
How are the companies positioned?
Virbac sells a postbiotic gut chew through veterinary sales representatives. Dinovite and Other Half Pet sell oral health products to dog owners on specific claims.
What matters when a buyer qualifies a postbiotic supplier?
Trial evidence, ingredient identity and manufacturing quality matter most. Buyers should ask for study design, dose and species behind supplier-reported results.
Which capabilities distinguish the product offers?
Format, palatability and a second claim distinguish products. Powder suits dosing by weight, while chews carry added claims such as dental care.
How does geographic reach affect competition?
Veterinary sales representatives carry the gut chew to clinics in France. Online sales matter more in China, where about two thirds of pet food sells online. In India, e-commerce holds 31.6% of pet food sales.
