Long before a pharmaceutical company's name settled onto the crest, a group of schoolboys in Koprivnica had already been kicking a ball around under the banner Đački nogometni klub, from 1907. What came after was less a straight line than a string of restarts: a spell as HŠK Victorija in the 1920s that ended with the club folding. Only in 1994, when the local drugmaker Belupo stepped in as backer, did the name settle into NK Slaven Belupo, with the nickname Farmaceuti following it.

Home games are played at Gradski stadion Ivan Kušek Apaš, which holds 3,134.

Silverware has come close rather than arrived: runners-up in the league in 2007/08, third in 2011/12, and three losing Croatian Cup finals — twice against Dinamo Zagreb, in 2006/07 and 2015/16, both lost 2-1 on aggregate. Europe produced sharper moments. In 2008/09 the club reached the UEFA Cup proper by putting out Greek side Aris, before CSKA Moscow ended the run, and in qualifying for the 2012/13 Europa League it put ten goals past Portadown of Northern Ireland over two legs.

Closer to home, the fixture that carries weight is against NK Varaždin, known locally as the Derbi Sjevera. The two sides have met 56 times since 2004. Slaven Belupo have won 23 of them.
