Today's episode is a unique story for A Seat at the Table. Typically we interview single family businesses, but Holt of California would never have become as mighty as it is today, employing 900 people brokering deals for Caterpillar equipment. It was the joining of three separate family businesses that allowed Holt of California to be a mainstay in the California agriculture business.
Your host, Natalie Mariani-Kling talks with Ken Monroe, President and Ryan Beatie, Senior Vice President about the history of the company, how they handled the merging of multiple businesses and multiple families to create the powerhouse Holt of California is today, navigating the exit of family members who were working in the business before the merger, and why Ryan refers to Ken as his “work dad.” It is truly an amazing story.
