West Elk Partners

We’re an equity partner that believes in a holistic approach to life and business – one that doesn’t make you choose between what you value and the value you deserve. We don’t invest in businesses until we invest in the people behind them. Every person, every investment, and every journey is unique. That’s why we start by getting to know you, your business, your hopes, and your dreams. We share what inspires us and how we hope to empower your goals. And together, we discover the guideposts you need to plan where you want to go next. — Our investment criteria ▪ Investment types ▪ Recapitalization ▪ Family succession ▪ Full buyout ▪ Growth equity ▪ Management buyouts ▪ Corporate divestitures — Areas of focus ▪ Light/specialty manufacturing ▪ Value-added Distribution ▪ Consumer products ▪ Food and beverage ▪ Service businesses — Geography ▪ We are geographically flexible, but focus on the Mountain West, Midwest, and Southern U.S. regions
