TDSG, LLC, doing business as The Dairy Solutions Group, is pleased to announce it has finalized an agreement to acquire Performance Dairy Service (PDS), a long-time provider of dairy services and equipment based in Tulare, California.
The addition of PDS will enhance TDSG’s geographical reach and strengthen the growing dealership’s ability to help producers increase farm productivity, improve overall herd health and promote sustainable food production through the integration of technology, equipment, strategic expertise and facility services.
“There is a lot of change and consolidation happening right now in the dairy industry, both locally and nationally,” said Ryan Calistro, President of TDSG. “Adding Performance Dairy Service to the TDSG family is a good business move that creates a win-win for everyone, especially as we help our customers navigate an ever-changing marketplace.”
Performance Dairy Service employees will continue to operate under the PDS banner and serve their existing customer base as the leadership teams work through the transition. The founder and owner of Performance Dairy Service, Robert Leal, will continue with the new company for a period of time, as both parties recognize the importance of maintaining existing customer relationships and ensuring a smooth ownership transition.
“TDSG has a proven track record of serving dairy producers in northern California, Arizona and Idaho, so the decision to join a company with an established network of resources and dairy professionals is exciting,” said Leal. “We know that our existing customers will continue to receive the same levels of service and expertise to which they are accustomed, and we now have even more talent and resources available to help them – as well as other producers – with their operations.”
PDS has served and partnered with dairy operations of all sizes throughout central California since 1999. The company, which employs a highly trained group of service and installation technicians, is also an authorized Delaval dealer and offers the latest in milking equipment technology.
“Performance Dairy Service has been a mainstay in the California market for more than 25 years, so we know they share our passion for excellence in the dairy industry. Given that California is also the largest dairy market in the U.S., we are excited to be able to provide quality products and excellent service to even more of the market with the addition of Performance Dairy Service’s existing customer base,” said Calistro. “Their proven track record and deep understanding of the marketplace will be instrumental in driving our continued growth and innovation. Together, we will work tirelessly to uphold the enduring legacy of dairy and set new benchmarks for operational excellence.”
