Long-term Horizon
Our investment horizon is typically 7-10 years. We are not constrained by the parameters of an investment fund and have the personal approach, patience, and flexibility to successfully execute our common goals.
It's Personal
You are our partner and we’ll be part of your team from day one. We’re looking for compelling concepts and franchise visions that we will be just as passionate about and dedicated to as you are.
Flexible Capital
As a franchise investor, we are flexible in our approach to investing capital and can take minority or majority positions when investing. Our main priority is to provide founders with support and capital that fosters a path to achieving growth and liquidity goals.
Experienced Owners
Franchising is hard work. We know it because we’ve done it. Members of our team have invested in over 40 franchise transactions, we’ve been franchisees for leading concepts including Subway, Edible Arrangements, Hand & Stone, and Smashburger, and we’ve worked for and founded franchisors across industries, including Wyndham Hotels & Resorts and U.S. Franchise Systems. We bring real-life experience to work with us, and to benefit you, every day.
