MerlinVet Group was on show at London Vet Show on 17th – 18th November at the ExCeL in London. A first outing for our new group branding, our stand attracted a steady stream of visitors across the two days, where the team had the opportunity to catch up with some familiar faces and some completely new ones.
Some of our key takeaways from London Vet Show included:
Brilliant place to interact with likeminded industry professionals and experts (possibly the best place for this in the UK each year)
Great range of CPD and talks
Exhibition space was well organised & enabled easy interaction with different stands when walking around
Opportunities for networking throughout the day were excellent
Simple to collect new leads through event technology
London Vet Show provided one of the first opportunities for us to showcase all 5 parts of the business together at once, as well as Relyne. We were able to talk to visitors to the stand about all aspects of the business, from our import/export side and wholesale side of operations, to our veterinary buying group, health plan solutions, and gas exposure monitoring service. You can find out a little more about each part of Merlin in the video at the bottom of this article.
We were incredibly lucky to be joined by Julian Norton from The Yorkshire Vet, alongside his wife Anne, who both answered questions from delegates around setting up a new practice.
Congratulations to Kelly Eyre, who won our London Vet Show competition and is the proud new owner of a Garmin Multisport GPS Watch and PitPat dog activity monitor. From the hundreds of entrants who visited our stand, the one lucky winner, drawn at random, was Kelly, who works at the Feline Healthy Ageing Clinic. Kelly, your prize is on its way!
London Vet Show proved, once again, to be a thoroughly worthwhile experience exhibiting; we generated many new leads and were able to showcase all 5 parts of the Group to the wider industry. Our branded water bottles, coffee flasks and tote bags proved exceptionally popular. Please tag us in any snaps with your water bottles or coffee flasks when you’re out and about – we’d love to see them getting a run out in public. Also, let us know if you’d be interested in seeing these become available in the future. It was brilliant to see so many people visiting the stand and interacting with us over the course of the event – and we look forward to replicating this in 2023. Thank you to everyone who took their team out of their day to come visit us.
We’ve collated some of the key questions that we were asked and are still being asked since London Vet Show and put them into a handy FAQ sheet. You can view the MerlinVet Group FAQ sheet here.

It’s incredibly easy to use and shows results seamlessly, with a nice user interface and badge awarding system to encourage you and your dog to be out in the great outdoors!

“It’s time to rethink your horse’s digestive health”
Presented by Nathan Slovis DVM, Dipl. ACVIM, CHT
About the webinar
The Veterinary Team at Hagyard Equine Medical Institute in Lexington, Kentucky has discovered the potency of a polysaccharide formula targeting Equine Gastric Ulcer Syndrome (EGUS). Previous pre-clinical successes with other species drove their investigation.
As you know, the prevalence of gastric ulcers in horses is high across all disciplines and effects overall condition, performance, and behaviour. The Hagyards Veterinary team sought an alternative to traditional treatment options for EGUS that would be effective and safe for continuous use without altering the GI pH.
Join us to hear how their investigations and continued field-use have resulted in the creation of Relyne GI.
Learning objectives
Peer reviewed published scientific paper.
Q&A session with Leading International Equine Veterinarian.
Launch of a New Gastric support product for EGUS management.
Networking opportunity with International Veterinarian audience.
Potential new revenue stream for Veterinary practice.
A blend of high molecular weight Hyaluronic Acid & yeast extract formulated to support gastric health in horses. Recommended and used by veterinary surgeons and professional horsemen, Resolvet Relyne GI is the choice for natural gastric support.
