Tillery Capital is an operationally oriented, family office structured private investment firm that invests in and builds lower middle-market companies in partnership with their management teams. We make equity investments in companies whose EBITDA is greater than $2 million. We are "hands-on", consultative investors and focus on companies where the current owners or management team are hungry to grow the business, but have concluded they need a value-added equity partner to help them get it done. Most our transactions are either recapitalizations in which the current owners retain 20-40% of the equity or where the management team is buying the business from its current owners.
Tillery's founders have acquired more than 50 middle-market companies with an aggregate value in excess of $1.3 billion. Our investment strategy is to make only one new platform investment every 12-18 months and take an active board-level role in helping our companies refine and achieve their business plans.
We are experienced company founders, CEOs and business consultants. We understand, first-hand, the demands of running a business in a challenging, competitive environment. We have the knowledge, experience and management tools necessary to help our companies implement their business plans and we provide them resources and capital they otherwise would not have access to. We work collaboratively with management in setting strategic objectives and priorities, identifying and executing on sales growth opportunities, improving operational effectiveness, handling business complexities, addressing capital needs, and sourcing and completing add-on acquisitions. We are our own “operating partners” and business owners really like this approach.
We have the benefits of being a family office. We are business builders, not business flippers constrained by a limited life fund. We have the flexibility to focus on and manage our companies for the long-term and to do what is best for the company, its shareholders and its employees. We also have greater flexibility in the type of businesses and situations we can invest in and we are also comfortable investing in businesses that have the imperfections and limitations smaller businesses typically have.
