We create value through operational improvements.
About Us
SART Capital Partners is a private equity fund manager for sustainability-driven mainly industrial buyout investments in the lower mid-market, including special opportunities and secondaries. Where necessary, we take on active management board positions. Our advantage is an extensive network of experienced operating managers and senior advisers throughout Europe and North America.
SART uses its control stake and operational acumen to transition its portfolio companies to sustainable growth – combining financial health (profits) with environmental (planet) and social (people) improvements.
Operational improvements are at the core of SART value creation strategy.
SART value creation strategy
Thanks to the team’s extensive experience with turnarounds and restructuring, SART can operate and create value even in difficult situations. Our team is able to assess the status quo fast and identify a healthy core that the future can be built on. SART can invest anyplace on the balance sheet, with a clear plan to take control.
The SART team proved its capabilities in divesting non-operational assets, driving the change towards lean manufacturing and increasing profitability. At the same time, SART has an extensive track record of expanding businesses from CEE to other countries or globally. By optimizing the capital structure, SART helps build resilient, sustainable businesses and thereby improve their growth potential.
