Fortress co-CEOs Drew McKnight and Joshua Pack wrote an op-ed for the The Dallas Morning News to give insight into why Fortress is a founding investor in TXSE Group Inc, the parent company of the Texas Stock Exchange (TXSE). Dallas and New York are co-headquarters of Fortress. Alongside being home to more than 130 colleagues, Dallas-Fort Worth is also home to many companies backed by Fortress including Mammoth Freighters, Aspire MRO, MP Materials and First Foundation Inc. “This is the right time, the right place and the right vision for Dallas to lead on a new front, as the home to a new breed of financial exchange — one that can deliver real commercial benefits to market participants,” wrote Drew and Josh in the article. “It is time to rally behind TXSE and other ambitious efforts that can propel our city and state to new heights and to cement our region’s place as ‘A new capital of capital.’”

Punch Pubs & Co, a Fortress portfolio company, operates around 1,240 pubs across the UK. The company was just awarded a Gold award in the Mind Workplace Wellbeing Awards for the second year running: great recognition from Mind, one of the UK’s largest #mentalhealth charities. Core to Punch Pubs’ growth is its focus on helping publicans create pubs that are hubs of the community, where everyone is welcome. Punch achieves this in part through training programs that help community pub operators to learn in a classroom, a pub and a kitchen at the same time. That approach has built an exceptional network of community pubs, each with a flexible and personal approach.
🎉We did it again 🎉 We're thrilled to announce that we have achieved Gold in the 2023/24 Mind Workplace Wellbeing Awards for the second year running! 🏆🙌Thank you to Mind for this incredible honour. This award is special to us because at the heart of everything we do is our team of passionate Push the Pineapple and Pub Hero Volunteers who prove that culture will always eat strategy for breakfast. Here's to Anna Russell, who has led the Mental Health and Wellbeing volunteers on an incredible collaborative journey with Burton & District Mind. This year, we are taking our work to pubs. Let's continue our efforts and keep pushing forward together!

Fortress is pleased to join the founding ownership group of the Texas Stock Exchange (TXSE). From an Op-Ed by co-CEOs Drew McKnight and Joshua Pack in the Dallas Morning News: “At Fortress, while we expect that our co-headquarters in New York and our offices in other long-established world financial centers such as London and Tokyo will always be hubs of our global operations, more companies every day are considering locating, or relocating, their headquarters to Texas—and for good reason… In the 22 years since Fortress established our first office in DFW, our commitment to the region has been validated and rewarded at every turn…The time, the place and the vision are right for TXSE. It is time to push our ambitions beyond establishing a toehold for our city and state as the “Wall Street of the South.” It is time to protect and enshrine all of the advantages that have powered our ascent as a financial center of the nation and the global economy. It is time to rally behind TXSE and other ambitious efforts that can propel our city and state to new heights and to cement our region’s place as “A New Capital of Capital.”

Congratulations to the Majestic Wine team on their well-deserved recognition, reclaiming the IWC Industry Awards’ Large Multiple Retailer of the Year award. Over the last year, Majestic Wine has continued to grow its physical footprint, sales, product offerings, and reputation as a premier retailer.
What a night it was for Majestic at the IWC Industry Awards 2024! Having been shortlisted as finalists in six different categories – more than any other business – our colleagues walked away with three trophies. We were delighted to reclaim one of the biggest prizes on offer, the Large Multiple Retailer of the Year award. This accolade recognises the strong progress we have made across the business during the past 12 months, growing sales, enhancing our product range, expanding our store estate and making further investments in our colleagues’ learning and development. Majestic were also crowned IWC French Specialist – recognising our “exceptional performance” and “deep understanding of the market” – and IWC Rose Specialist, after the esteemed judging panel concluded that we “flourished” in the key category as a result of our “increasing focus on premium selections”. We were also ‘highly commended’ in the South Africa Specialist category following another year of strong sales growth and improvements in the quality and depth of our range. Majestic CEO John Colley said: “This is thoroughly deserved recognition for all of our colleagues who have been at the heart of the incredible progress we have made during the past 12 months. We wouldn’t have achieved these prestigious awards without their passion, dedication and expertise, and I’m delighted that this has been rewarded by the IWC’s esteemed panel of judges.” Huge congratulations to our colleagues and all of this year’s IWC Industry Awards winners, and thanks to International Wine Challenge for hosting such a memorable night at The Oval 🥂 #TogetherWeAreMajestic #ProudToBeMajestic #IWC2024 #wine #awards
