Decades of operating and investing experience
Helix Investments and Culbro LLC were formed in 2005-06 as the private equity offices in India and the US, soon after the Cullman family sold its cigar business. It was the largest premium cigar business in the US at the time and run by the Cullman family for over 40 years. During those years, the family also acquired, managed, and sold a host of other businesses in areas such as snack foods, laxatives, publishing, distribution, packaging and labeling, and real estate.
The Bloomingdale family is renowned for its department stores business in the US, which was sold by the family nearly a century ago. The family retained the land and buildings of the stores and established Bloomingdale Properties Inc., which continues to be the family’s investment and real estate business in the US.
