Cardinal Equity Partners

Cardinal Equity Partners is a multi-family owned investment firm with a mission to acquire controlling interest in a small number of middle-market businesses located in the eastern half of the United States.  With over 20 years of experience in acquiring and building middle-market businesses, we have a demonstrated track record of utilizing our collective operating, marketing, and financial backgrounds to help management teams grow and build companies of value.  As private investors utilizing our own capital, we do not have the same liquidity pressures that a Fund-based investor has, thereby allowing us to view each of our investments as a long-term commitment towards building an enduring, profitable business.
 

Our goal is to partner with management teams in the acquisition of niche manufacturing, value-added distribution, or service companies that have a positive financial history and that exhibit the potential to grow either organically or through acquisition.  While the principals of Cardinal all have previous operating experience, our role is to serve as active Board members and advisors, assisting exceptional management teams in building their businesses by ensuring that they have the financial and human capital resources necessary to execute agreed upon business plans.
