CAROUSEL CAPITAL is a private investment firm that invests in Southeastern based companies. With over $300 million of capital under management, Carousel is one of the largest private equity firms in the Southeastern U.S. Our investors include an elite group of over 65 current and former CEOs with expertise in a diverse group of industries. Recently, we have expanded our investor base with capital from institutional investors including banks, insurance companies, and pension funds.

Throughout its history, Carousel has focused on acquiring and growing exceptional companies in the Southeastern U.S. Due to our unparalleled investor network and relationships in the Southeast, we are uniquely positioned to be a value-added investor for companies operating in this region of the country.

Carousel's investment criteria are focused. We prefer to acquire or provide growth capital to established Southeastern businesses with proven management teams and more than $5 million of operating cash flow. We are not a venture capital firm and do not typically consider investments in early stage or pre-revenue companies.

Our investment experience includes a broad range of industries including manufacturing, distribution, business services, telecommunications, health care, and financial services. Each of our portfolio companies has experienced the benefits of our business relationships and contacts, our management expertise, and our unique focus.
