History

Tracy began the enterprise by selling an assortment of dairy products out of the back of the family station wagon. Tracy was originally from Jerseyville, Illinois, and moved to Mount Sterling after his marriage.

In 2016, Dot Foods was listed at number 65 on Forbes' list of America’s Largest Private Companies with a reported revenue of $6.2 billion in 2016.

In 2017, John Tracy moved from CEO to executive chairman in the company, and his brother, Joe Tracy, became CEO. Another brother, Dick Tracy, was appointed president. All three are sons of founder Robert Tracy and his wife, Dorothy.
