Investing in the Essential Businesses That Keep America Moving
We partner with founders and families in the lower middle market to build enduring value. We like companies that are providing for real needs, not just the wants. Examples of sectors we like are agriculture, ag tech, industrial services, & niche manufacturing.
Who We Serve
We focus on businesses that keep our economy running and people fed—ag, ag tech, industrial services, and niche manufacturing. These sectors are often fragmented and founder‑led, offering opportunities to build scale and strengthen competitive moats.
Our Investment Approach
Our process begins with listening. We meet with owners to understand their goals and their business’s strengths.
We conduct thoughtful diligence to identify growth opportunities, then structure a transaction that aligns incentives—often including equity rollover so owners can participate in future upside.
Post‑close, we work alongside management to execute a growth plan and pursue strategic add‑on acquisitions.
Value Creation & Support
At Methodica Capital, we go beyond providing capital — we partner with owners to strengthen operations, open doors through our network, and execute strategic M&A when it adds value. From modernizing systems and recruiting key talent to adding board-level governance, we tailor each initiative to the company’s unique needs rather than applying a cookie-cutter playbook.
