"Do research very well, very talented team ... business expand to its potential" (Chris Vonwiller, Appen) |
Watch and listen in more detail to these quotes as business owners and CEOs share their experiences with other business owners considering an Anacacia investment.

Does your leading SME fit our investment criteria? Leading SMEs with the following attributes are potential candidates for Anacacia's private equity funds:
- Strong cash flow (usually $5m+ existing earnings on $20-300m+ revenue)
- Local (Australian or New Zealand based leading SMEs)
- Ready for change (e.g. succession and/or growth towards a successful longer term full sale or path to IPO)
- Confidential (prefer a private confidential transaction at fair value that brings in a high quality partner)
- Management (outstanding management to partner with us; we can also help with senior hires if required)
- Opportunities (where we can add strategic insight and capital to support long term shareholder value)
Please speak with anyone who has ever worked with us and connect with our team for a discussion.
