Mosaic Capital Partners

Mosaic Capital Partners operates as an employee ownership private equity firm, specializing in the acquisition of lower middle market companies. It employs Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) and Employee Ownership Trust (EOT) buyouts, blending private equity with employee ownership models. This approach provides strategic value and wealth creation for employees, targeting businesses with $5-15 million EBITDA in manufacturing, business services, and consumer products.

Founded in 2013 by Steve Buchanan, Keith Butcher, Bill Hayes, Joe Strycharz, and Dabney Smith, Mosaic stemmed from a key insight. Their experience in private equity and ESOPs led them to offer business owners a unique change of control option through employee ownership, creating employee wealth. This foundational understanding shaped the firm's focus on structured employee ownership transactions.

Mosaic serves business owners seeking liquidity, management teams desiring continuity, and employees pursuing direct ownership. Its model ensures business perpetuation, letting all employees in acquired companies directly benefit from success. The firm’s vision focuses on empowering workforces and creating value by expanding employee ownership across various industries.
