HOLD.co - A Diversified Holding Company

We Acquire Cash-Flowing Businesses

HOLD.co is an operator-led acquisition platform focused on buying and building durable, cash-producing businesses in asset-heavy B2B industries. We target profitable operating companies with $2 million or more in EBITDA, particularly in manufacturing, industrial services, logistics, construction support, and other infrastructure-driven sectors where physical assets, skilled labor, and long-standing customer relationships create real economic moats. These are businesses that power the economy but rarely attract institutional attention—companies with real facilities, real equipment, and real customers that generate consistent cash flow year after year. Our strategy is not based on financial engineering or short-term exits. We acquire businesses to operate and grow them over the long term, often alongside the real estate and hard assets that underpin their value.

We acquire manufacturers that produce essential, repeat-purchase components or finished goods used inside larger B2B supply chains. This includes businesses engaged in metal fabrication and machining, plastics, composites, and molded components, industrial coatings and finishing, packaging and materials-handling products, and niche OEM or private-label manufacturing. We favor manufacturers with long-standing customer relationships, proprietary processes, tooling, or certifications, and capital equipment that creates meaningful competitive barriers. Low customer concentration and consistent repeat orders are especially important, as they produce stable, predictable revenue. These types of manufacturing businesses are difficult to replace and tend to generate high-quality, durable EBITDA over long time horizons.

We target industrial service companies that keep plants, facilities, and infrastructure operating. These include equipment maintenance and repair, field service and installation, industrial cleaning, testing and inspection, environmental and safety services, and shutdown or turnaround specialists. These businesses benefit from mission-critical demand, contract-based or recurring revenue, highly trained technicians, and strong customer embedment. Once integrated into a client’s operations, switching costs are high, which creates pricing power and stability. As a result, these businesses tend to produce resilient margins and dependable cash flow.

We acquire asset-based logistics and distribution companies that move, store, or supply physical goods for B2B customers. This includes regional trucking fleets, warehousing and fulfillment operations, specialized or temperature-controlled storage, and industrial or MRO distribution. We focus on businesses with contracted or repeat customers, owned fleets or facilities, dense regional coverage, and sticky commercial relationships. These operators become essential to their customers’ operations, making their revenue more durable than most service businesses and providing strong downside protection across economic cycles.

We specialize in businesses whose competitive advantage is built around owning and operating specialized equipment. This includes heavy machinery operators, environmental and waste services, drilling, testing, scanning, inspection, specialty transportation, and field-based industrial services. These companies benefit from high capital barriers to entry, strong asset coverage, and limited competition, which supports pricing power and predictable utilization-based revenue. When paired with disciplined operations and capital management, these businesses generate stable cash flow and long-term compounding value.

Real Estate-Inclusive Transactions

We prefer transactions where the operating business also owns its real estate. In many industrial and manufacturing companies, the facility, yard, or plant represents a significant portion of the total enterprise value. HOLD.co is structured to acquire both the operating company and the underlying property, often through a sale-leaseback or similar structure that allows sellers to unlock trapped equity while preserving operational continuity. This approach improves capital efficiency, strengthens the balance sheet, and provides long-term stability for the business while giving owners a cleaner, more flexible exit.

Frequently Asked Questions

What types of businesses does HOLD.co acquire?

HOLD.co acquires profitable, asset-heavy B2B operating companies, primarily in manufacturing, industrial services, logistics and distribution, construction support, specialty trade contracting, and other equipment-intensive sectors. We focus on businesses that own physical assets, serve commercial customers, and generate durable, recurring cash flow.

What size companies do you target?

Our typical target generates $2 million or more in EBITDA. We will review slightly smaller companies if they have strong asset backing, stable customers, and a clear path to growth, but our primary focus is on businesses that are already scaled and consistently profitable.

Do you buy companies that own their real estate?

Yes. In fact, we prefer it. Many of the best industrial and manufacturing companies also own their facilities, yards, or plants. HOLD.co is structured to acquire both the operating business and the underlying real estate, often through a sale-leaseback or similar structure that allows sellers to unlock equity while keeping the business operating in place.

Are you a private equity firm?

No. HOLD.co is an operator-led acquisition platform. We do not raise blind-pool funds or pursue short-term flips. We buy businesses to operate them for the long term, investing in people, equipment, and growth rather than stripping costs for a quick exit.

What happens to the management team after a sale?

We strongly prefer to retain existing leadership and operational teams. Most of the businesses we acquire continue to be run by the people who built them. We provide capital, strategic support, and infrastructure while keeping day-to-day operations in experienced hands.

What makes HOLD.co different from other buyers?

We combine three things most buyers don’t: operational focus, real estate expertise, and long-term capital. That allows us to structure transactions that work for sellers, preserve the business, and maximize value without forcing short-term exits or financial engineering.
