The Vine Group

The Vine Group is a family office based in Carmel, Indiana, focused on direct investments across the food and agriculture supply chain. We operate as a private holding company, acquiring and growing businesses in food, agribusiness, and CPG with a long-term, values-driven approach. Unlike conventional private equity, we prioritize legacy, people, and purpose—investing not just capital, but decades of operational expertise to scale companies with unique capabilities. With over 30 years of experience in acquisitions, operations, and go-to-market strategy, we bring hands-on support to each portfolio business. We seek out founders and teams who share our belief that investing is a deeply human endeavor—and that real, lasting value is built with care. Our mission is to make safe, affordable, and nutritious food a global reality. Through both for-profit investments and non-profit impact initiatives, we bridge commerce and community across food, agriculture, wine, and mission-aligned ventures.
