Carrying Legacy Businesses Forward. Long Term Vision, Built to Last.
At Dockbridge Partners, we focus on providing succession plans to retiring or transitioning owners of warehousing, fulfillment, 3PL, and distribution businesses. Upon acquisition, our goal to provide continuity to the firm's existing employees, clients, and local community stakeholders.
Founder's Story
Drawing from my Vietnamese immigrant roots, I deeply respect the grit and perseverance required to build a successful business. To that end, I am motivated to pursue the American Dream by being personally committed to honoring your hard work to ensure the company and its team continue to thrive. As an acquisitions professional with over $2.0B in successfully closed transactions, I will work collaboratively to get a deal done that works for both of our goals.
Why Dockbridge Partners?
Dockbridge Partners is not a large investment fund or corporate buyer looking to flip a business or absorb it into a bigger machine. I’m an individual buyer focused on acquiring and personally operating one great company. My approach is hands-on, thoughtful, and relationship-driven. I’ll take the time to learn what you’ve built, listen to your goals, and ensure your team, customers, and legacy are respected.

With a 20-year professional background in operational strategy and transaction execution, he brings a disciplined approach to building businesses that prioritize people, reliability, and efficiency. For example, he has contributed to revitalizing neighborhoods undergoing gentrification such as the Arts District in Los Angeles, building a local team to operate the 32-acre creative office and retail complex known as ROW DTLA by converting it from its original warehouse use. In his free time, Tim enjoys going on adventures, such as scuba diving in the Galapagos or hiking Machu Picchu. Tim resides in Los Angeles, CA and is an alum of UC Berkeley and Columbia University.
The Dockbridge Partner's team is also supported by experts in the supply chain industry, such as Nishant Raut, and in professionals in M&A Advisory, Financial Analysis, & Due Diligence.
