What is Alpine Street?

Alpine Street is a holding company with fully committed funding to acquire a business in the industrial or infrastructure sectors.

Who We Are

We are entrepreneurs who share a deep conviction in the strength and resilience of the U.S. economy and the small businesses upon which it is built.

With experience investing in and helping build companies across industries, we’re focused on acquiring a single company within the industrial or infrastructure sectors, which are seeing a resurgence as manufacturing and supply chains are brought back from overseas.

Our efforts are supported by permanent, committed capital from patient investors and operating advisors who bring decades of experience in building great businesses.

For business owners, we are committed to preserving the legacy you’ve built and developing a close partnership during and after the transition. We’re dedicated to maintaining the core values and culture of your business while guiding it toward future growth and success.

Our Team

Our Process

  • We’ll spend some time getting to know each other. We will hear your story, learn about your company, and listen to your goals to understand if there is a fit to move forward.

  • We’ll sign a non-disclosure agreement (NDA) and ask for access to basic financial information on your company. We'll do some initial analysis to evaluate your industry, business, and operations and most importantly, our ability to have a positive impact on your business.  We’ll put together an initial offer to help us discuss what a deal might look like.

  • If we decide together to move ahead, we’ll give you a letter of intent (LOI). This is a formal - but not binding - offer to buy your business and will include a purchase price (or a range) and outline the key terms of the deal. As part of the signed LOI, we will ask for an exclusivity period (typically 60-90 days) to review and better understand your business. Finalizing a letter of intent and agreeing on terms of exclusivity usually takes ~2 weeks.

  • Due diligence involves a thorough review of your company's operations, financial history, and team. We'll hire advisors to help us understand legal, lending, accounting, and technical aspects.

    Throughout this time, we will meet regularly to discuss questions, specific deal details, and build a transition plan. This is the point where we will collectively discuss the future of the Company. 

  • Once all parties are happy, we’ll sign the final purchase agreement, transfer funds, and celebrate an exciting future for your business. After closing, we will work closely with you to ensure a smooth transition for all employees, customers, and suppliers. During the transition, our focus will be on learning the business.
