OUR VALUES
PRESERVE YOUR LEGACY
Glen Prairie Capital (GPC) is dedicated to providing a straightforward succession opportunity for a small- to mid-sized business owner seeking to exit their business and preserve the company’s legacy.
PROTECT YOUR PEOPLE
GPC approaches employee and customer relationships with a long-term perspective and centers on cultivating the best outcome for all stakeholders.
SUCCESS THROUGH GROWTH AND INVESTMENT
We grow businesses by finding ways to help customers and invest in new capabilities.
WHAT WE DO
GPC believes that collaboration, experience and enthusiasm can enhance small businesses on the top line and bottom line. We’re focused on growing businesses, not reducing headcount.
We grow businesses the old-fashioned way by listening to customers and growing with them. Email is nice, but personal interactions are better.
The team specializes in the physical world. We’re focused on distribution, industrials and light manufacturing. Our team has experience in large, medium and small businesses from start-up through maturity.
We are concerned with all stakeholders. A company is only as good as its employees. Great employees make and provide exceptional products and services. Our goal is to enable employees to help our customers succeed in a sustainable way.
WHAT WE ARE NOT

*
We are not a private equity firm with a short-term time horizon who seeks to “Buy, Strip and Flip” your company.
*
We are not an operator who is focused on maximizing near-term profits at the expense of employee and customer relationships.

SIZE: Consistent annual cash flow of $1-5M
