Welcome to Ridge Capital Partners

about us

Ridge Capital Partners, LLC is a Northern Virginia based private equity investment firm focused on partnering with business owners, entrepreneurs and management teams to build market-leading companies.

RCP invests in industry sectors including manufacturing, distribution and business/consumer services.  RCP is flexible in its investment approach to suit the needs of prospective sellers and has experience with a variety of transaction types, including: recapitalizations of privately owned companies, where owners sell a portion of their business to generate liquidity while maintaining an ongoing ownership interest; management-led buyouts, where RCP partners with an accomplished executive or executive management team to purchase a company; generational changes of ownership, where a succeeding generation is desirous of taking over both operational control and ownership from a prior generation; divestitures of corporate divisions or subsidiaries, where RCP would look to partner with an incumbent management team to purchase corporate spin-off; and take-private transactions of publicly-held companies.

Since 1992, RCP has maintained a consistent, disciplined strategy focused on supporting management partners and their teams in companies at the lower end of the middle market.  RCP’s partners understand that people are what make the difference in any company and, as such, early in the process we strive to understand the owner’s and management’s objectives as it relates to the transaction, the company, the management, the employees, the customers and the vendors.
