About

Wellspring Capital Management is a US-based mid-market private equity fund. Wellspring's objective is to bring partnership, experience and value creation to each investment. By teaming up with strong management, Wellspring is able to unlock underlying value and pursue new growth opportunities through strategic initiatives, operating improvements and add-on acquisitions. We look for companies that have strong brand identity or market position; the likelihood for improved productivity or cost reductions through reorganizing or redeploying capital into core businesses; and the capability of generating a recurring revenue stream and stable, predictable cash flow with long-term growth. We invest in buyouts, public to private transactions, and corporate carve outs, in businesses generating $20-100m EBITDA, and we seek control. We focus primarily on General Industrial, Business Services, Healthcare Services, Packaging, Distribution and Consumer / Restaurant companies.
