Direct Capital is New Zealand's leading private company investor. Since 1994, we have been at the forefront of developing New Zealand’s private equity industry. We are currently investing Direct Capital VI, a NZ$425 million fund which was raised in March 2020.
Direct Capital has a successful history of investing alongside owners and managers into large, profitable, privately owned, New Zealand and Australian businesses, often when they are considering one or more of the following:
- succession planning - including a sale to the management team;
- funding for the next phase of growth;
- the acquisition of a complementary business;
- trans-Tasman expansion; or
- preparing for an eventual IPO.
We typically invest between $20m - $80m of equity into companies and are comfortable with both minority and majority shareholdings.
These are some of the household names we've invested in: Caci, TR Group, Beca, Qestral Corporation, Exact Radiology, Marvel Packers, AS Colour, Perpetual Guardian, Hiway Stabilisers, Scales Corporation, Debitsuccess, Bayleys Real Estate, Energyworks, Cavalier Wool Scours, PF Olsen, New Zealand King Salmon, Fishpond, GoBus, NZ Pharmaceuticals, Rodd & Gunn, Stratex Group, Max Fashions, Express Logistics, Ryman Healthcare, Nobilo Wines, Airwork, EFTPOS NZ, Tasman Building Products and EziBuy.
