DCC plc is an international sales, marketing and support services group.[2] DCC is organised and managed in four separate divisions (DCC LPG, DCC Retail & Oil, DCC Technology and DCC Healthcare), each focused on specific market sectors. Its shares are listed on the London Stock Exchange and it is a constituent of the FTSE 100 Index.
History[edit]
The company was founded by Jim Flavin in 1976 as Development Capital Corporation Limited.[3] Originally the company focused on providing venture capital to start ups, however in the mid-1980s it changed direction and became an industrial holding company, changing its name to DCC and floating on the Irish Stock Exchange and London Stock Exchange in 1994.[4]
The company was embroiled in a controversy over the issue of insider trading in Fyffes plc, the Irish fruit importing company in which a subsidiary of DCC, Lotus Green, held a stake which was sold in the year 2000. In 2002 Fyffes sued DCC over the sale of its stake in the company. The case was tried in the Irish High Court from December 2004 until July 2005, and on 21 December 2005 judgement was handed down. DCC was cleared of insider trading, although it was found to have been acting as a 'single entity' with Lotus Green and Jim Flavin with regards to the sale of the shares. Fyffes appealed to the Supreme Court of Ireland and, in a judgement[5] on 27 July 2007, the Supreme Court overturned the High Court's verdict and ruled that the documents that had been in Flavin's possession when DCC sold the shares had indeed been price sensitive. In April 2008, Fyffes settled its case against DCC for an amount of €37.6 million.[6] As a result of this case, DCC and Flavin came under the examination of the Irish Director of Corporate Enforcement.[7] In January 2010, The report of the High Court Inspector into the affairs of DCC plc was published. The Director of Corporate Enforcement concluded that no further action was warranted by his Office.[8]
In 2011, DCC bought Maxol's Home Heating company, Maxol Direct, which it re-branded as Emo.[9] In 2012, DCC spent around €100 million acquiring LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas) distribution businesses in the Netherlands, Britain, Sweden and Norway.[10]
In August 2014, DCC announced that it reached an agreement with ExxonMobil to acquire the Esso Express petrol station network and the Esso Motorway concessions in France [11]

In February 2015, DCC completed the disposal of substantially all its Food & Beverage subsidiaries.[13] During the same year the company acquired Butagaz S.A.S., a French LPG business, from Shell for €464 million.[14] The acquisition made DCC Europe's third-largest LPG distributor. [15]
In March 2016, the company agreed to acquire Alimentation Couche Tard's commercial and aviation fuels business in Denmark for €40 million. [16] The deal included a 139-site retail petrol station network and supply contracts with 66 dealers. [17]
In April 2017, DCC announced it had agreed to sell its Environmental division to Exponent, a private equity firm, for £219 million.[18] The company also announced the acquisition of Shell’s liquefied petroleum gas business in Hong Kong and Macau for £120 million, its first acquisition outside of Europe, and the retirement of its chief executive Tommy Breen.[19]
In July 2017 Donal Murphy, previously Managing Director of DCC Energy, became Chief Executive.[20]
