Makers Forward, LLC

We are entrepreneurs and business owners. Makers Forward, LLC is a cross between a private equity organization and a manufacturing company. We invest in middle-market North American manufacturing businesses. Our objective is to make long term investments in companies that can help grow and improve operating efficiency. We partner with management teams that we can work well with to develop people, strategy, and innovations. The name Makers Forward highlights our objective to invest in manufacturing businesses (“makers”) and utilize our experience, contacts, and resources to help move the company in the right direction (“forward”). We often hear that if a business is not growing (or innovating) it is dying – we help the manufacturing companies that we partner with to grow and improve. We have experience acquiring distressed businesses, corporate divestitures, retiring owners, etc. and will review most business situations for control investment.
