Winona Capital Management
About Winona Capital Management
Winona Capital provides acquisition and growth capital to outstanding emerging brands. We partner with passionate entrepreneurs who have created successful brands and want to exceed their dreams.
We bring far more than capital. For companies ready for a bold approach to growth, we offer real-world experience, a sustained approach to brand building, and our belief that a partnership has to work for everyone – the company, its management, its employees, and investors.
We’re about more than capital. We’re about partnership. By building strong relationships with management teams, we help grow brands and businesses. To us, commitment means being there through it all.
When we partner with a company, we give it everything. Our investment begins with the creation of a Total Growth Blueprint: a go-forward strategic roadmap designed in collaboration with our CEOs and management teams to achieve brand-building goals. We commit to the Total Growth Blueprint throughout the life of our involvement with a brand.
Our CEOs run our portfolio companies, but we provide impressive brand- and business-building assets – including the annual Winona CEO Leadership Summit. This powerful opportunity to learn and grow brings together portfolio company executives, Winona Advisory Council members and industry experts to discuss marketplace dynamics, brainstorm new opportunities and share best practices.
