We are two highly motivated entrepreneurs with a track record of outstanding results operating and advising businesses.
Our Values
People First
From our operations and family business backgrounds, we know that people are a competitive advantage. Every decision we make as managers will prioritize the well-being and development of our team and community.
Integrity & Trust
We deeply respect your achievements and appreciate the significance of your decision to exit. Our approach is anchored in fairness and integrity, ensuring every interaction is confidential and equitable. We are dedicated to preserving your legacy, building a solid foundation of trust and respect in every engagement.
Customer Commitment
Customers will be the heart of every decision we make, driven by the belief that ethical conduct and a relentless focus on customer satisfaction are fundamental to building long-term relationships and ensuring the success of the organization.
Better Every Day
We are committed to consistent progress, recognizing that even small improvements can compound over time. We aim to make decisions that deliver lasting value to our stakeholders, employees, customers, and the broader community.
The Down Harbor Difference
The Right Skillset
United by a 15+ year friendship, we bring together a diverse array of expertise across investment banking, private equity, startup strategy, family business, supply chain management, and business operations.
Long-Term Focus
Having experienced the complexities of exiting a multi-generational family business, we understand the importance of finding a buyer who will honor and sustain your legacy. At Down Harbor, we commit to being responsible stewards of the company you built, focusing on sustainable, long-term growth.
Patient Capital
Down Harbor is backed by personal funds alongside a robust network of long-term investors and operators, providing us with a diverse array of capital sources to finance the acquisition. Our access to 'patient capital' allows us the flexibility to tailor the transaction structure to best suit the business's needs.
