Elm Creek Partners is a Dallas-based private equity group investing primarily in Texas and the Southwest. Our approach is to partner with strong teams and actively assist them in building successful and enduring enterprises.

We seek investment opportunities in the smaller middle market where access to institutional capital is limited by a company's size, industry or other complications, such as:

  • Shareholder Disputes
  • Absentee Owners
  • Financial Distress
  • Corporate Orphans

Elm Creek Partners will make controlling equity investments of $3 to $6 million, primarily in established companies led by experienced entrepreneurs with vision and integrity.

We typically consider investment opportunities in the manufacturing/distribution, business or financial services arenas, but have a particular interest in the following sectors:

  • Aerospace & Defense
  • Transaction Processing
  • Packaging
  • Waste & Energy Services
