About the Company

Neogen

Develops and markets food safety tests

Neogen develops and markets test kits and services to detect a range of safety issues in the food and animal supply chain. Its products help identify foodborne bacteria, natural toxins, and drug residues in animals, and the company divides its offerings into two segments: Food Safety and Animal Safety. Products are delivered as test kits and related services that enable customers to screen and verify safety at various stages from farm to fork. The firm differentiates itself through its scale and geographic reach, a consequence of the 2022 merger with 3M’s food safety business that nearly doubled its size and created a global leader in food safety by expanding product lines and geographic footprint. Neogen’s goal is to ensure the safety of the world’s food supply by providing comprehensive tools and services that detect contaminants and residues across the food and animal industries.
