    What We Do

    Investment
    Criteria

    Size of Investment:

    Generally in the $5 million to $20 million purchase price range.

    Canada only.

    Industry Sectors of Interest:

    At VG Partners, we have had extensive experience in a wide range of industries, from service, distribution, manufacturing and technology. To us, the important criteria are an experienced and dedicated management team, with a significant financial interest in the business. And the second is a stable, predictable and secure cash flow.

    Retirement / Management Buy-Out

    The major shareholders are looking to retire and realize on the substantial value they have created in their businesses. VG Partners will buy the company, and provide the owners with a safe and profitable way of retiring. VG Partners is happy to work together with the current management team as partners in the purchase, or can bring in experienced outside management.

    Partial Cash-Out

    The owners are looking towards an eventual retirement, and wish to realize on a portion of the value they have created in their company today. Such a “staged exit” allows an owner to enjoy a sizeable portion of their equity now, while working on a succession plan and eventually complete retirement.

    Industry Consolidation

    The company operates in a fragmented industry that provides an attractive opportunity for consolidation and management has the desire to become the dominant player in the market. VG Partners will provide the capital and expertise for the consolidation.
