In this case study, CPL assessed the potential market for a bioactive feed additive which is effective against coccidiosis for a potential investor.

Objective

CPL’s client had developed a feed additive based on bioactive compounds that demonstrated efficacy against Eimeria, the parasite responsible for coccidiosis. The objective of this project was to assist the client in assessing the potential market for the product by providing details of the market for the production of broiler and other meats, the cost of coccidiosis to the industry, and an estimate of demand for new products to control Eimeria parasites.

Method

CPL used scientific literature, regulations databases, industry news and expert interviews to complete this report. We provided our client with transcripts of interviews.  Following the completion of this project, CPL’s client invested in the target company.
