TONY QUINN
With Rob Langton
QUINN FAMILY OFFICE
Joining our program in this exclusive feature profile is Tony Quinn - Founder of Quinn Family Office (Quinnfinity Group). A visionary, pioneer & the man with the Midas touch, Tony’s remarkable business success is a journey across three Countries, wherein his innate corporate nous combined with a relentless work ethic has enabled him to scale to the top of a diverse range of industry sectors including fresh pet food, confectionary, motorsport & commercial real estate investment. Though perhaps best known for his early success as the founder & driving force behind global market leader VIP Petfoods, the business he established from the ground up in 1994 before selling a majority stake to Quadrant Private Equity in a $410m transaction in 2015, Tony’s business achievements extend far beyond the VIP deal & incorporate a number of other triumphs; not least of which being the rapid turnaround & re-structuring of the infamous Darrell Lea Confectionary business, a company he acquired in 2012 for $25m before selling six years later in a $200m deal. Alongside his well popularised feats with both VIP & Darrell Lea Confectionary, Tony’s unheralded business victories include a number of other previous ventures in both his hometown of Scotland & his adopted home of New Zealand, with his entrepreneurial flair resulting in similarly successful outcomes being achieved for sign writing business Lofthus & Co Signs, waste-fat collection businesses CueWaste & Fatman Services Limited as well as chip-producer Fast Fry Chips amongst many others. The culmination of this financial success over a long period of time led to Tony establishing his own private investment vehicle Quinn Family Office (Quinnfinity Group) in 2015, a company through which he channels his considerable resources & expertise to invest in a broad spectrum of domestic and international businesses, commercial property assets throughout the World & venture opportunities.
