Pioneering One-Stop Buyouts® in the Lower Middle Market

Sound Growth Partners is a Seattle-based private equity firm investing in clear market leaders within the lower middle market using its unique One-Stop Buyout® approach.

The SGP team has worked together extensively for many years, successfully investing in, supporting, and growing lower middle market companies. We only invest in what we know - small and medium sized businesses with compelling market share in protected niches within the business services, consumer products, distribution, and light manufacturing sectors.

SGP Was Founded On Two Fundamental Principles

Principle #1

The friction between lenders and equity holders inhibits value creation.

Rationale

By providing all of the capital (debt and equity) required in our investments, we ensure financial engineering takes a back seat to enhancing enterprise value.

Principle #2

Large market share in a small market is better than small market share in a large market.

Rationale

Companies with compelling share of a protected niche are better positioned to grow profitably and sustainably over the long term.
