The Great River Company

The Great River Company (“GRC”) is a Minneapolis-based private investment company backed by business-owning families for family and founder-owned businesses seeking liquidity for ownership transitions, career and financial opportunities for management teams, and experience and capital for organic and acquisitive growth. What Sets Us Apart GRC is an alternative to traditional private equity firms, which think in terms of three to five-year investment periods; we think in terms of successful Company outcomes over decades. We were founded on the belief that we can achieve more together than on our own, and that a successful outcome is one where all stakeholders benefit: shareholders, employees and their families, the community where the business resides, the customers the Company serves, and the vendors that provide services/products to the enterprise. What We Do GRC provides transitional solutions for business owners seeking succession planning and liquidity options, while preserving their legacy and maintaining the culture that makes their company great. Our transitional solutions are flexible and can come in the form of non-control and control equity, preferred equity or other structured investments. What We Look For • Preference for family or entrepreneur-owned businesses • Strong alignment with management • Potential for organic and/or acquisition growth • Revenue greater than $10 million • EBITDA greater than $2 million • Headquartered in North America
