InVivo Animal Nutrition and Health (InVivo NSA) has increased its capital by 215 million Euro to accelerate its international development and complete targeted structuring acquisitions of activities that are complementary or growth drivers. This capital increase, together with increased borrowing capacity, will allow the company to invest between 400 and 500 million Euros over the next three years. The funds raised by the company will fund investments and new locations in emerging countries now and in the future. It will also allow the company to develop more innovation projects and partnerships as well as accelerating targeted acquisitions in fields presenting growth opportunities: additives and ingredients, premix, animal health, aquaculture, and pet food.

In November 2013 InVivo acquired the Belgium-based hatchery feed company, Bern Aqua. The company is gradually implementing its ten-year strategic plan. Having announced its intention to acquire critical mass in the field of additives with the acquisition of Pancosma in September 2014, it strengthened its position in related countercyclic activities with the acquisition of Total Alimentos, the third largest petfood company on the Brazilian market in October 2014.
