Danville Partners

About Danville Partners

Depending on the industry and situation, we will consider equity investment opportunities in small- and middle-market companies with a revenue range of $2 to $25 million that generate earnings before interest and taxes greater than $1 million. We prefer control investments but in certain cases are willing to consider alternate situations. Currently, we're focused on growth and investment opportunities in environmental and safety-related products and services, niche industrial manufacturing companies, value-added distribution businesses, healthcare, and selected service businesses. Generally, our investment capital comes from individuals who have been deeply involved in building entrepreneurial enterprises. They have been successful owners, managers, entrepreneurs, and advisors helping companies grow. They understand the operating challenges of running a smaller organization, as well as the longer-term benefits of unlocking an organization's organic growth potential. Now they are investors too, but we like to think they're "smart money." They understand the challenges because they have faced them first hand. The management team of our clients and portfolio companies is among colleagues who know the ups and downs, the excitement, the pride and sometimes the frustration and challenges of crafting an enterprise. We've been down this road before.
