Headquartered in Coral Gables, Florida and founded in 1981, Trivest is one of the oldest private investment firms in the Southeastern U.S. For more than 40 years, Trivest has invested exclusively in founder-led and family-owned businesses in the lower middle market. Current AUM is approximately $5.6 billion. While private equity plays a critical role in the global M&A marketplace, our industry often has a negative perception in the minds of founders. Unfortunately, sometimes this perception is reality. As a result, we have built our entire business around providing ownership transitions specifically designed to fit the needs of founders, entrepreneurs, and family businesses; and Trivest works hard to ensure their ideals and philosophies are not compromised. The Trivest Promise: Our company-first approach brings highly differentiated and flexible options to business owners. We provide a fair, transparent process that eliminates the usual pain points that arise when dealing with private equity firms and strategic acquirers. We call this "Just Say No!" As a testament to our relationship focus, more than 60 founders who have previously partnered with Trivest have invested their own capital in our funds. Trivest has four distinct investment approaches. Trivest Recognition Fund ($1.3 billion) and Trivest Mid-Market Fund VII ($950 million) for control investments; our dedicated non-control fund, Trivest Growth Investment Fund II (TGIF), with $435 million of committed capital, provides minority growth equity (10-49% stakes) to fast-growing businesses; and Trivest Discovery Fund II is a $600 million fund supporting small, profitable companies in highly-fragmented industries. Trivest is well positioned to partner with your business for its next stage of growth and development. Reach us at 305-858-2200 or info@trivest.com with investment opportunities.
