About Us
Focused on Family Businesses
North Park Group is a private family office investment group of business operators based in Chicago, IL. We focus on the acquisition of family-owned United States based manufacturing and distribution businesses with the strategy to hold and grow them.
We are NOT a private equity fund.
We believe in the fundamentals that make family owned businesses great: People, Customer Service, Team Work, Continuous Improvement, and Long-term Value Creation. We have the flexibility and creativity to tailor our investment to meet the business characteristics and shareholder goals. With a focus on small and middle market businesses, we understand the challenges and opportunities facing niche businesses. North Park Group works closely with businesses to develop and execute strategic growth plans to create long-term value for shareholders and employees.
North Park Group LLC
Is a private family office investment group in Chicago. We focus on the acquisition of family-owned North American manufacturing and distribution businesses with the strategy to hold and grow them through organic and acquisition initiatives. Since we are not a Private Equity Fund, we do not have the external pressure to exit investments at a pre-defined time. We utilize our own capital mixed with capital from our investor base specifically tailored to the investment objectives of each acquisition. In addition, NPG professionals bring operating and managing experience as well as specific industry knowledge and deployable resources to help drive growth and value. Our standard model is to directly participate with Sellers in the business operations for a time while ensuring the local team is set up for long term success. This enables us to truly learn the business, its employees, and customers. This experience also allows us to be good owners of the business for the future and provide the proper support and guidance to ensure success and continued growth
