Makai Capital is an investment firm passionate about improving the lives of our stakeholders while being responsible stewards of the environment where we live and work. We are seasoned operators and investors in industrial manufacturing, services, and distribution, and look to use our experience to help companies and management teams reach their full potential. We believe that industrial production is the backbone of our economy and a thriving manufacturing base is vital to our future. At the same time, we also know as responsible industry participants we should continually look for ways to reduce waste, carbon emissions, and reliance on non-renewable resources.
Makai Capital is focused on the North American lower middle market. We look to take majority equity positions in companies with a strong track record of growth and the potential to expand further in attractive end markets. We seek out business owners looking to transition to the next phase in their lives, whether that is partial or full retirement, starting a new venture, or something else entirely. We provide owners with liquidity at a fair valuation while also infusing their businesses with the capital and business expertise to accelerate growth and market share gains. We are flexible in working with existing ownership and management teams to ensure stability and continuity throughout a transition. In all our companies, we implement our Makai Commercial Playbook to unlock the true market potential where we operate.
If you are an owner/founder seeking a value-added partner, or a sustainability-minded investor looking to learn more about our purpose and investment approach, we would love to hear from you. You can reach us at [email protected] or use the form on the contact page of this website.
