A profitable manufacturer whose owner is past sixty, has no successor, and has never taken capital off the table.
INDUSTRIES
Most of the industrial businesses we work with were built over decades by one owner or one family. They are profitable, often dominant in a niche, and almost entirely illiquid. The wealth is real, and it is trapped inside the company.
The hardest moment is rarely operational. It is the absence of a path out: no successor ready, no buyer the owner trusts, no structure that converts a lifetime of work into capital without losing control of it along the way. This is the firm's deepest market, and it is exactly where we work.
Long-held, owner-aged, no succession; recapitalisations, consolidations, and legacy liquidity. We want these mandates.

Where we engage
—
Recapitalisations that release liquidity without forcing a full sale
—
Consolidation of several owner-run operators in one discipline into a platform
—
Generational liquidity events structured around the family, not a fund's timetable
—
Off-market sell-side processes run discreetly to a small set of credible counterparties
—
Cross-border structuring where the business, the owner, and the buyer differ in jurisdiction
Typical Situations
01
A profitable manufacturer whose owner is past sixty, has no successor, and has never taken capital off the table.
02
Three or four sub-scale operators in one sector worth materially more assembled than apart.
03
A family enterprise where the next generation will not run the business and the value has to be converted without a public process.
If this is your position, or the position of someone you advise, it is worth a conversation.
