How to grow a fifth-generation family company? Diversify!
Multiple generations of ownership of a family business make for a great story - but they also historically make for increasing difficulties in making the business work. Matthew Nix. President and CEO of Nix Companies, took the industrial company that his ancestors originally started as a blacksmith shop over 120 years ago and with the help of his wife and brother and others, grew it through acquisitions to include custom fabrication, maintenance services, real estate and other business areas.
In addition to creating a true success story with the family business, Nix also helps set the example of valuing people and doing good for society by doing well as a business.
Tune in and hear Matthew tell the whole inspiring story!
