Empowering Family and Founder-Owned Businesses for Lasting Success
Building on 90+ Years of Entrepreneurial Spirit
1932 Capital Management is the single-family office of the Brown family, multi-generational owners of one of the largest family-owned businesses in North America.
At 1932 Capital, we partner with like-minded family and founder-owned companies across the business services, industrial, and food & beverage sectors. We are differentiated by our long-term, permanent capital, which supports flexible transaction structures and investment horizons.
A Unique Approach to Private Equity Through Family Capital
Operational Partnership
With 90+ years of multi-generational business building behind us, we know what it takes to grow and sustain a company over the long haul. Our support is focused on providing businesses the tools to scale successfully, as our founders did in their own business.
Legacy Preservation
We invest as long-term stewards of the business, not financial engineers. We understand what it means to build something over a lifetime. Our own history is rooted in a family business, and we approach every investment with respect for what came before us.
Flexible Structures
Every business is different, and we structure our investments accordingly. Whether a full buyout, partial recap, or something in between, we work with founders and families to find an approach that meets their goals.
Patient Capital
We invest from a permanent capital base, free from the fundraising cycles and predetermined timelines that drive traditional private equity. There is no fund clock dictating our decisions. Instead, we seek to exit when the time is right for the business and all shareholders.
A Legacy of Leadership,
A Vision for Growth.
