Year Founded
We do not believe in private equity – we believe in permanent equity. We do not have GPs and LPs. We simply partner with key management to own businesses together for the long term.
Key Offices
Our offices span the country. We know business is local. We let our local teams work together to find solutions that fit to preserve our corporate culture and value but with local appeal and intelligence.
Transaction Team
Our portfolio ops teams are the core of our competitive advantage. The greatest outcomes come from great teams. Our people are our most valuable asset. They are skilled problem solvers that believe challenges can be opportunities.
Portfolio Teams
We know what we know and what we don’t. We think we are good listeners. We have been consistently successful by employing a risk management approach over a returns approach.
