About Stoney Point

Stoney Point LLC brokers the sale or the acquisition of Indiana and Ohio based manufacturing and logistics companies.

   The principal of Stoney Point LLC is Dennis Pressler. Dennis has over 35 years of business start-up, business operations, business sale and business acquisition experience. His industry experience is in both long-haul trucking and precision contract manufacturing.

Dennis started two Indiana based long haul truckload carriers. The first was for Schneider National in Fort Wayne. It grew to almost 150 owner operators and 200 semi trailers. The second was for himself and was based in Indianapolis. It grew to 230 company owned tractors and 560 semi trailers plus approximately 20 owner operators. During this time, he also started a warehousing and distribution company in Fort Wayne focused on the beverage container industry. He sold his trucking company to a larger publicly owned truckload carrier in 2000.

In 2002, he started a contract precision manufacturing company in Carmel, IN providing multi axis CNC machined products, short run plastic injection molded products and precision formed sheet metal products to aerospace, medical and industrial customers. That company was ISO 9001 and AS 9100 (aerospace) certified. It was sold to several different parties in late 2011.

Dennis has since focused on assisting business owners on achieving the best possible transition for their companies and assisting business buyers on realizing their acquisition goals. His thorough understanding of a broad range of manufacturing processes for a range of industries and his thorough understanding of the trucking industry are considerable assets in assisting business sellers and business buyers achieve their goals.
