Buying Group Offers Discounted Veterinary Supplies to Shelters and Rescues

A new program introduced by the San Francisco SPCA aims to lower the costs of veterinary supplies and other goods for participating animal welfare organizations. The Compassion Collective Purchasing Program is free to join and does not require administrative fees; in order to remain active members of the program, organizations would only need to make purchases at least once every 3 months.

“By creating a buying group, we increase our purchasing power with the aim to qualify shelters and rescues for discounts that may otherwise be out of reach for a single entity,” says Jennifer Scarlett, DVM.

Interested organizations across the country are invited to join the program, which partners with Covetrus to provide discounts on products like flea/tick preventatives, veterinary supplies, medical supplies, and equipment.
