Our Approach

Long Term

We’re not looking to strip out costs and sell a business on simply to make a quick buck.

We plan to build, run and grow our investments for the long term

Focused

We’re not look for any ol’ businesses. We have a passion for food & beverage producers who sell to independent retailers- this is our happy place and where we want to stay.

Leverage

A wise man once said “Stand on the Shoulders of Giants”. In other words, our success comes from leveraging our existing relationships in the Food Industry and partnering with our sister Company elmprofessional.com

Hands On

We’re not here to wear fancy suits and manage through aloof Board meetings- active involvement is our game. We have a team ready to get stuck in- from sales reps, to operations managers and full stack finance teams
