Capital that understands how things get made.
We structure capital for new plants, expansions and equipment for manufacturers in strategic supply chains — semiconductors, batteries, defense, medical and heavy industry.
Reshoring and supply-chain security are driving a generation of new domestic production capacity. Manufacturers need capital that can read a production plan, not just a balance sheet.
We organize the operating story — customer contracts, capacity, equipment, workforce and incentives — and present it to lenders and investors with a manufacturing mandate.
Typical transactions.
- Greenfield plants and facility expansions
