INVESTMENT SIZE
For nearly 25 years, we have been a Private Equity Fund that has partnered with U.S. lower middle-market companies looking to take advantage of our C-level expertise. Our fully transparent working style, diverse professional experience, and collaborative process result in simpler and faster transactions for all parties involved. With our One-Stop Solution (all the equity and all the debt) we invest in both traditional Control Transactions as well as Continuation Vehicles where sellers, management teams, and investors all benefit from a simpler, fully aligned capital structure that supports better outcomes across the ownership lifecycle.

All the equity. All the debt. With no need for traditional third-party lenders.
Champlain Capital’s One-Stop Solution benefits everyone’s interests: Excellent returns with lower risk, faster and simpler transactions with greater certainty, flexible transaction structures that meet sellers’ and sponsors’ needs, with no adverse third-party lenders to distract management teams.
We purchase companies directly from sellers. We also support sponsors raising capital for Continuation Vehicles to extend the ownership period of one or more existing portfolio companies. This One-Stop Solution has been used extensively by Champlain’s founders since 1994 and has decades of proven success.
Approach
It’s a fact: when all the capital comes from one source, management can react faster to timely opportunities or challenges while keeping the long term in mind.
Team
Champlain professionals have invested over $1 billion in more than 80 companies. Their track record in building success comes from first cultivating great relationships.
Investments
Our One-Stop Solution is well suited to add value to niche businesses, including consumer products, manufacturing, business services, healthcare and value-added distribution.
