OmniCable Announces Acquisition of Kingwire
Highly Strategic Transaction Broadens OmniCable’s Distributor Stock Program Capabilities, Aluminum Offering, and Leadership Across High-Growth End Markets
WEST CHESTER, PA – August 27, 2026 – Omni Cable, LLC (“OmniCable”), a Dot Family Holdings (DFH) company and one of North America’s largest redistributors of wire, cable, fiber, and other electrical and communications products, announced today that it has completed the acquisition of Kingwire from Kinderhook Industries, LLC.
Operating eight warehouses with more than 625,000 square feet of capacity, Kingwire is a leading value-added distributor of low- and medium-voltage wire and cable for electrical distributors across the United States. With a primary focus on distributor stock programs (DSP) and a nationwide sales network, Kingwire has a comprehensive offering of company-branded products for building wire, data center, utility, industrial, and renewable energy markets. Following the transaction, each company will retain its own brand and existing locations.
“We are excited to welcome Kingwire and their outstanding management team to the
OmniCable family and look forward to executing on a combined, robust pipeline of growth opportunities,” said Chris Breslin, CEO of OmniCable. “Kingwire represents a complementary offering to our core, special order business by strengthening our DSP and aluminum offerings and providing us access to the utility channel. Together, OmniCable and Kingwire will provide electrical distributors with broader product availability, expanded warehouse reach, deeper aluminum wire expertise, and enhanced support across stock, project, and specialty wire and cable needs.”
“This is an exciting opportunity for OmniCable and Kingwire to accelerate growth at a time when rapid electrification across infrastructure, utility, and data center end markets is fueling strong demand for our products and services,” said Joe Tracy, Chairman and CEO of Dot Family Holdings. “This acquisition underscores DFH’s strategic focus on sustainable growth, operational efficiency, and long-term value creation.”
The combined company results in a North America wire and cable redistribution industry leader that will maximize OmniCable’s and Kingwire’s highly complementary businesses, products, and facilities to better meet the needs of the shared customer – the electrical distributor.
“OmniCable has long been a highly respected leader in our industry with a legacy of success,” said Andy Kessel, CEO of Kingwire. “We believe our shared vision of values, leadership, growth, and customer service will unlock value for our supplier and customer partners.”
William Blair & Company, LLC served as financial advisor to OmniCable and Dot Family Holdings, and Lewis Rice LLC served as legal counsel for the transaction.
