Our goal is to acquire and operate one, high quality business.

 

After nearly a decade of experience in business management, private equity, and finance, we were inspired by the entrepreneurial spirit to acquire a small business.  We have committed our search to finding a business owner who is ready to pass the torch to the next generation.  Through our active management, strategic planning, and sheer grit, we plan to grow a business over the long-term, continuing the legacy of our acquired company.

We are willing to work with an owner on a creative exit strategy that is suitable for all parties.  This could include a full buyout, a structured buyout over an extended time frame, or an earn out provision.
