Capital

Two ways to partner on the business itself.

Some owners want a partner who will work in the operation, not just fund it. Others are genuinely ready to hand it over. We do both — same screening either way, and we run what we buy.

Investment

We invest in operations.

Capital plus operating expertise, in a small number of businesses each year. We take an operating role — that is the whole point.

What we look for

  • $2M–$25M revenue — Established operations with real customers and real throughput, not pre-revenue concepts.
  • Operationally intensive — Distribution, light manufacturing, field services, multi-site retail, logistics.
  • Fixable margin — A business where better operations, not just more sales, moves the profit line meaningfully.
  • An owner who wants a partner — We invest capital and operating time. That only works when the owner actually wants the help.
  • Succession or growth inflection — Owners planning a transition, or operators who have outgrown the systems that got them here.
Business owners

Pitch us your business

Looking for a partner who will actually work in the operation, not just fund it? Tell us what you have built.

Acquisition

Ready to step out? We will buy it.

Some owners want a partner. Others are genuinely ready to hand it over. We buy operationally intensive businesses outright and run them — we are operators, not a fund looking for a flip.

When an acquisition is the right shape

  • The owner is ready — Not exhausted and hoping it passes. Genuinely ready to hand over the keys and the pager with it.
  • $2M–$25M revenue — Established operations with real customers and real throughput, the same band we invest in.
  • Operationally intensive — Distribution, light manufacturing, field services, multi-site retail, logistics.
  • The team stays — We are buying an operation, and an operation is its people. We are not looking to strip it for parts.
  • A handover that is honest — Whatever is broken, tell us now. We would rather price it in than find it in month three.
Business owners

Start a confidential conversation

Nothing goes further than us, and there is no obligation on either side. If it is not a fit we will say so quickly rather than string it out.

Not sure which conversation this is?

Most owners are not, at the start. Book a call and we will work out whether it is investment, an acquisition, or neither.
