Industrial Lower-Middle Market
Ashlar Investments follows the industrial lower-middle market closely: owners getting ready to sell, companies going through restructuring or court-supervised sales, and the buyers and lenders active in this space. We bring the right parties together.
Start a conversationWhat we follow
01
Founders and families who are retiring, stepping back or looking for a partner, often before the business is ever listed.
02
Chapter 11, receiverships and lender-driven sales, where good plants, equipment and customer contracts change hands on a tight clock.
03
Shops adding capacity, taking on bigger contracts or coming out of a restructuring, where the right lender makes the difference.
Who we work with
We put a company in front of buyers already looking for exactly that kind of business, confidentially.
Private equity funds, family offices, holding companies and strategic buyers, for platforms and for add-ons to companies they already own.
Asset-based, equipment and private credit lenders who understand machines, inventory and receivables, so financing fits the deal instead of holding it up.
How it works
I
For owners, the business and your goals. For buyers, your size, sector and region. For lenders, what you finance.
II
We only make an introduction when both sides fit. No mass mailings of your information.
III
From NDA through first calls and financing, we stay involved so the deal keeps moving.
Aerospace & Defense
Machine shops, fabricators and component makers holding the certifications primes depend on, and the buyers who want them.
Where we focus
Typically $1 million to $50 million in revenue.
