24 Apr Acquiring Minds: Building a Foundry Holdco to $30m | Reg Zeller Interview
Reg Zeller didn’t know what “search” was in 2017. He just knew he wanted out of his corporate job, and that buying a business seemed like a good way to finally strike out on his own. He bought a small foundry, despite everyone telling him it would be a terrible move. 6 years later, Reg’s company CaneKast has emerged as one of the most dynamic in foundries. There have been 7 acquisitions in total, aggregate revenue is on track for $30 million in 2023, and Reg is confident that $100m is attainable in the not-too-distant future. This interview is the story of how an entrepreneur bought a small business in a forgotten industry, and turned that into a star.
