"I was impressed with how quickly JP learned my business. I chose to sell to JP and his colleagues because they really understood the challenges and opportunities inherent in the business and how to build value going forward. They acted with integrity, preserved our unique culture and enabled me to transition from a day-to-day operating role to a board advisor role." - Sebastian Giefer, Founder, Griplock Systems

Sierra Equity Partners is a private investment firm founded to acquire, operate and grow an established business in Northern California. Our goal is to provide an ownership and management transition for a family owned or closely held entrepreneurial company. We focus on profitable companies in the business services, light manufacturing and distribution sectors with revenues up to $20 million. Sierra Equity Partners seeks to partner with a business owner who would like to obtain full or partial liquidity and at the same time ensure the continued growth of their business. Our ability to take on an operating role in the company provides an attractive exit alternative for retiring owners who seek to realize value and who want to transition away from the day-to-day management of their business. As local owner-operators with significant experience growing entrepreneurial companies, ready capital and a long-term investment horizon, we are the ideal partner for owners concerned about their company's employees, legacy and future growth.
