Diverse by Design. Disciplined by Choice.

Tony Ventures LLC is a privately held family investment and operating company founded in 2010 by Jessica and Carl Tyger. The firm was established to steward capital across a diversified set of operating businesses and real assets, with a long-term orientation and a hands-on approach where it adds the most value.

Over the past decade and a half, Tony Ventures has built, acquired, and managed businesses spanning e-commerce, consumer products, real estate, and industrial ventures. Portfolio companies have included nationally recognized digital brands such as ExpressionsVinyl.com and YarnWhirl.com, along with multi-channel product businesses operating across Amazon, eBay, Etsy, and other marketplaces in the gift and home décor categories.

The firm has also managed a multi-million-dollar real estate portfolio and made direct investments in early-stage and growth businesses across sectors including food and beverage, industrial materials, and natural resource operations such as gravel and aggregate production.

Like any long-lived operating platform, the businesses within Tony Ventures have ebbed and flowed with markets, cycles, and opportunity. Through these cycles, Tony Ventures’ companies have directly employed more than 125 people and, at peak, have exceeded $25 million in annual revenue—a reflection of both operational scale and disciplined execution.

Tony Ventures operates with a family-office mindset: prioritizing durability over velocity, alignment over leverage, and stewardship over short-term outcomes. Capital is deployed patiently, with an emphasis on businesses backed by capable operators, tangible assets, and clear paths to long-term value creation.

Today, Tony Ventures continues to evolve its portfolio—combining entrepreneurial experience with institutional discipline—while remaining privately owned, relationship-driven, and focused on building enduring value across generations.
