Blue Horizon Capital

Our Focus

Blue Horizon Capital is focused on acquiring and controlling investments in profitable, privately held consumer, manufacturing, or service companies with annual revenues between $20 million and $100 million. We assume an active, day-to-day operational role in the companies we acquire, working closely with established management and also providing additional management resources and growth capital to help successful companies achieve their full potential. Blue Horizon Capital seeks to invest in growth companies in industries that are fragmented and undergoing consolidation, with a strong bend towards service businesses that entail recurring revenue streams and stable, predictable cash flows. We target those businesses that offer the opportunity for rapid growth either internally or externally through add-on acquisitions. We are not interested in substantial turn-around situations or early-stage/start-up companies.
