:: Niche consumer goods and services
:: Sports, recreation and leisure
:: Specialty manufacturing and distribution
:: Growth-oriented, multi-unit specialty food and retail
:: Education services

Our focus is on companies with revenues of $5-100 million and EBITDA above $1 million. We seek to commit $5-$15 million in equity capital per opportunity, whether that investment can be made at the outset or committed over a 5 year period.
