Business Summary:
The company will be formed to acquire smaller Midwestern grocery chains in Illinois, Indiana, Michigan and Wisconsin. The company has already targeted 26 grocery-store chains based on their ability to compete with Walmart and other larger competitors in their respective trade areas. These chains were selected based on store count, sale volume, inventory, and business value.
The company’s management understands the challenges of operating retail grocery stores and plans to provide a range of advisory services to investee companies, including strategic planning, mergers and acquisitions, balance sheet restructuring, business operations and general financial advisory services.
Growth Opportunities:
The company seeks $100 million from financial partners to acquire some of the targeted grocery chains throughout the Midwest. The company will leverage debt to increase the return on equity.
