Brockway Moran & Partners – Committed to Growth

For 26 years beginning in 1998, Brockway Moran & Partners partnered with numerous dynamic middle-market companies and their management teams to build its companies through both organic growth strategies and add-on acquisitions that are tightly integrated. Over this time, Brockway Moran completed approximately 100 acquisitions and raised in excess of $1.3 billion in committed equity capital through three Private Equity funds, delivering overall strong returns on its equity investments. The firm operated as strategic partners working with management teams to create a shared vision of growth for each company. In the process, Brockway Moran & Partners has been instrumental in creating industry leaders in diverse industries. The stories of a number of realized investments are told under the “Case Studies” tab of this website.

The vision for industry leadership and growth has typically included expanding the company’s markets, products and/or services offered, enlarging its geographic coverage as well as deepening its management team by adding key complementary resources. Brockway Moran & Partners committed to providing the financial resources as well as the strategic and operational expertise to achieve both short-term and long-term expansion goals.

Since its founding, Brockway Moran & Partners worked to position its portfolio companies for long-term success. The firm’s portfolio companies have subsequently been acquired by leading strategic acquirers, highly regarded private equity firms – such as KKR, Bain Capital, Genstar, FFL Partners, Brentwood Associates, and Leonard Green – or by family offices. Brockway Moran also has effectively utilized the public equity markets as a realization mechanism, when appropriate.

The mission of Brockway Moran & Partners has been straightforward: to be great partners to both to our limited partners and to the companies we invest in while positioning our companies for a continued legacy of growth and success beyond the time of our ownership.
