Learn moreCompany · Our Story
Founded in Tampa. Built nationally.
DEX Imaging started in Tampa in 2002 as a father-and-son venture and grew into the nation's largest independent dealer of office imaging technology — without trading away the local, service-first way it began. Today DEX sells and services copiers, printers, MFPs, managed print, IT, and document workflow across 68 or more metros, and gives back to the communities it serves.
Our Story
A father, a son, and a better idea.
DEX Imaging began in Tampa in 2002 as a father-and-son venture. Dan Doyle Sr. had already helped invent the modern imaging dealer — founding Danka Business Systems in 1977 and pioneering the mega-dealer model. With his son Dan Doyle Jr., he set out to prove an independent dealer could out-service the manufacturer-direct branches by staying close to customers. That conviction built the company: local teams, factory-certified technicians, and a refusal to be locked to any one manufacturer's catalog.
Independent by Design
Grown, not assembled.
Many competitors are private-equity rollups — assembled to be resold. DEX grew the company it operates, and keeps reinvesting in it. Privately held and service-first, DEX answers to its customers, not to a quarterly earnings call. The scale is national; the operating model stays local.
