There are hundred of companies that meet your criteria and dozens with sales in the billions. A few I can think of off the top of my head: M&M/Mars - owned by 3 siblings, Koch industries - owned by two brothers, and Bechtel. They are family owned businesses with a penchant for secrecy.
Edit: From another story on the home page right now - Red Bull $5B in sales
- vtail 15y agoThank you for setting me straight. Of course there are many privately-held companies that existed for decades and never took public money. I would bet that most of these companies were created decades ago and that most of the recent "success stories" took public money at some point - anybody knows any examples?
