DISTRIBUTION FOCUSED, COMMITTED TO GROWth
Dot Family Holdings (DFH) is focused exclusively on acquiring leading middle-market distribution companies, with a special interest in master/two-step distribution and national distribution business models. We are a unique alternative to today’s typical private equity providers. Our permanent, proprietary capital base allows for efficient decision-making, flexible transaction structures, and ideal alignment with management teams. We seek out business partners in which we can invest for the long haul, employing a buy, hold, and grow strategy. Our approach allows us to make decisions in the best long-term interest of our companies and employees.
