Middleground Capital

We are a private equity firm that invests in North American and European B2B middle-market industrial and specialty distribution businesses. Our differentiator among peers is our status as operators; we're founded and run by people who come from the manufacturing floor and have hands-on experience managing companies that range in size, from the lower middle market to the Fortune 500. We make control equity investments in fundamentally good businesses and align ourselves with management teams to execute a customized value-creation program that drives equity value back to our investors as well as management. Investing with integrity is at the core of our beliefs. We aim to create value in everything we do while leaving the world better than we found it.
