Built with discipline. Compounding with purpose.
At Dalmilling Capital, I don’t see myself as an investor, rather as a partner of a small number of good businesses.
I have one clear purpose:
To hold and grow a portfolio of simple, well-run companies, some listed and some private which generate steady cash flow and stand the test of time.
Our Roots
Dalmilling’s story begins far from the trading floor..
The name Dalmilling is more than a label. It’s a reference to a street I bought my first property in Western Australia. I quite liked the sound of it, and I always wanted to name it after something sentimental. When my first child was born in that house, this name became something to attach my legacy to.
That house has become a quiet nod to place, endurance, and the compounding value of doing things the right way, even when no one is watching.
What I Believe
I want to invest like the old families used to: patiently, carefully, and with full responsibility for the outcome.
I don’t raise outside capital.
I don’t chase hot sectors.
I don’t follow the crowd.
Instead, I back companies that are:
- Easy to understand
- Durable and essential
- Run by capable, honest operators
- Capable of compounding quietly over time
I buy with the intent to never sell, because as Buffet would say: great businesses, like great family homes, get better the longer you hold them.
Over the next few years I intend to
Dalmilling Capital will acquire and holds a small number of businesses:
- Privately owned firms seeking succession or long-term ownership
- ASX-listed companies with strong fundamentals and growth potential
- Cash-generating businesses in essential sectors.
We’re not trying to be a fund.
We’re not aiming for scale.
We’re here to partner with a few great businesses and for a very long time.
Who We Are
- Elijah – Heavily Inspired by Buffett and Munger. Read every recommended book and I have become quite fanatical. In fact, that is what my wife would say. Relentless about discipline, quiet about conviction.
If you’re an operator looking for a long-term partner or if you’re a founder thinking about legacy, not just liquidity, I would love to hear from you.
Or if you just want to follow along quietly…
You’re in the right place.
Welcome to Dalmilling.
