South African entrepreneur David Ellen fled his homeland, landed in Albuquerque, New Mexico, and in less than a decade built a $56 million business with 360 employees in eight locations, and sold it to his heirs. The story is detailed in a new video hosted by Family Enterprises\u2019 Pat Soldano.<\/p>\n

But it was a business Ellen knew well in South Africa, before fleeing for safety. The classic \u201cAmerican Dream\u201d story was built on one simple customer service belief: \u201cWe\u2019re not Number One. You\u2019re Number One.\u201d To see the full story go to: www.family<\/a>enterpriseusa.com.<\/p>\n

The need for fact-based reporting of issues important to multi generational businesses and protecting a lifetime of savings has never been greater. Now more than ever, multi generational businesses and family businesses are under fire. That’s why Family Enterprise USA is passionately working to increase the awareness of issues important to generationally-owned family businesses built on hard work, while continuing to strengthen our presence on Capitol Hill. The issues we fight for or against with Congress in Washington DC include high income tax rates, possible elimination of valuation discounts, increase in capital gains tax, enactment of a wealth tax, and the continued burden of the gift tax, estate tax and generation skipping tax.<\/p>\n
