With the acquisition of a Naples-based transportation firm, the Hoffman Family of Companies reports it is now the largest private owner-operator of a black vehicle fleet in the United States.
Hoffman Family of Companies acquired Dolphin Transportation Specialists, which operates more than 165 vehicles, including sedans, SUVs, vans, Mercedes Sprinters, mini-buses and motor coaches. Terms of the acquisition were not disclosed by the family-owned private equity firm that is also headquartered in Naples.
“Joining forces with the Hoffmann Family of Companies represents an exciting chapter for our team,” Tim Rose, who co-founded Dolphin Transportation Specialists in 1994, says in a statement. “We look forward to leveraging their expertise and resources to elevate the luxury transportation experience for our valued clients.”
