Gala Capital Partners operates as a private investment firm anchored in Southern California, with longstanding ties to the restaurant sector. The firm targets multiunit businesses that are distressed or poised for growth, as well as software-as-a-service companies that support multiunit operators, and it selectively explores strategic real estate opportunities. Its approach centers on patient, long-term partnerships with management teams, aiming to add value through its multi-concept platform and hands-on restaurant experience as both a franchisee and franchisor. Gala Capital favors control positions but maintains flexibility in investment structures, including management buyouts and various debt instruments. The firm’s portfolio spans restaurant brands such as MOOYAH, Dunn Brothers Coffee, Dillas Primo Quesadillas, and Rusty Taco, alongside several SaaS providers like Ecotrak, Targetable, Stream, and Lunchbox that support restaurant operations. In 2024, Gala Capital appointed Patricia Perry as director of franchise development and sales to support its franchised brands.
