The Zabel Companies ("Zabel") is a private investment firm dedicated to partnering with management teams to build small private companies over the long term. Whether through a buyout, recapitalization or injection of growth capital, Zabel's strategy is to work closely with management teams over a 5-10 year period to grow the business and build value for all parties involved. Zabel's team does not limit its investment activity by industry, but rather focuses on the fit with management and specific opportunities to partner and grow a business. We have a hands-on investment style built from years of working in close partnership with management teams and owners. We function as a pool of resources on which management teams can draw to accelerate their growth and build a stronger and more stable business.
