Fund Overview
Right Opportunity
The Midwest Opportunity Fund. Goals in line with yours.
The Midwest Opportunity Fund understands your situation and provides a win-win
solution for you and your business. The Fund brings together seasoned professionals
and equity to invest in carefully selected, privately held businesses in which
the owners are ready to sell or are looking for a recapitalization strategy. These
businesses become part of The Midwest Opportunity Fund where the combination of
great companies and talented individual expertise fuse together to nurture and
grow the business you have created.
Why should you consider The Midwest Opportunity Fund?
We know you have invested your life in your company. We want you to achieve
liquidity while not having
to worry about the day-to-day issues, if that is your desire. We want to work
a flexible deal structure
that makes sense for all parties involved and that takes your taxes and financial
goals into account.
And we want to take on the burden of banking, finance and other headaches you
have had to endure as
a business owner. We are focused and committed professionals who make timely decisions
on potential
acquisitions. You won't be tied up in long, drawn out negotiations.
Our acquisition strategy.
The Midwest Opportunity Fund invests in small-to-medium-sized businesses where
we believe a real marketplace need exists for the companies' goods and services. These are existing
and ongoing businesses in a cross-section of industries, likely but not limited to Manufacturing,
Distribution and Technology. Typically, the businesses are mature and located in the Midwestern
United States. To be considered by the Fund, your business will have a significant operational history
available for analysis and a management team in place. Portfolio Companies will include some or all of
the following characteristics:
- Serves the business-to-business marketplace
- Ownership looking to develop an exit strategy, or looking for help in a key
business area in which the Fund Principals and Managers can provide a solution
and add value. These resources may include:
- Finance/Cost Controls
- Sales/Marketing
- Management
- Involved in sustainable markets or industries where consistent returns are
achievable over the life of the company
