AMVC's vision is to be an industry leader in livestock production by providing management, veterinary, nutritional, marketing, and employee expertise that supports animal welfare, environmental stewardship, quality and traceability of meat products, and the sustainability of livestock production.


AMVC, LLC, began as the Audubon Veterinary Clinic, a four-veterinarian, mixed animal practice in west-central Iowa. The practice expanded in 1990 with the purchase of a veterinary clinic in Manning, Iowa, and the business name changed to Audubon Manning Veterinary Clinic. In the early 1990s, the number of predominately cow/calf and feedlot cattle farmers began to decrease in number. The owner veterinarians at the time had the foresight to recognize a need for swine management and the swine industry began its consolidation.  In 1993, AMVC Management Services began managing its first finishing site, a two-barn, 2,000-pig finishing operation. Over time the number of sows and finishing spaces under management has continued to increase. Today, the business is named AMVC.
