An Industry PioneerCapital For Business ( "CFB" ) is a national private investment firm focused on providing capital to middle-market businesses with proven management teams and a high potential for growth. Founded over 45 years ago as one of the first Small Business Investment Companies ( "SBICs" ), we have managed numerous institutional funds and currently manage more than $100 million of capital commitments. Over our long history, we have invested in more than 80 companies across a wide range of niche consumer, commercial, distribution, manufacturing, and service markets throughout the United States.CFB provides all levels of junior capital to great companies with highly capable management teams and strong growth prospects. Our goal is long-term growth and the creation of value. We begin this process by creating a transaction with a responsible ( not over-leveraged ) capital structure and we pride ourselves on providing "patient capital, " a source of capital that is defined by what it does not do, rather than by what it does. We add value to our portfolio investments by bringing a unique set of financial, operational, and industry expertise to help management teams continue to grow their businesses. We do not invest in or purchase a company to substantially reduce the number of employees, to sell off key assets, or to realize a short-term profit. We base our partnerships with management on trust, and treat challenges with the pragmatism and integrity necessary to create world-class companies. Our experience demonstrates that a long-term investor view in cooperation with exceptional management partners yields robust results time and time again.
