Cinder Capital Partners is a private investment firm dedicated to acquiring and permanently growing lower-middle-market businesses in Canada.

The Cinder Difference:
Unlike traditional private equity, we are operators first. Born from the high-stakes world of critical infrastructure, we bring a level of operational rigor, risk management, and strategic discipline rarely found in the lower middle market. We do not just buy companies; we steward legacies.

Our Mandate:
We partner with retiring founders to provide a seamless exit and long-term stewardship for their life’s work. We focus on acquiring stable, profitable businesses with $1M–$5M in EBITDA across:
* Niche Manufacturing: Precision engineering and specialized production.
* Commercial & Industrial Services: Mission-critical B2B service providers.
* Specialized Construction: High-barrier-to-entry infrastructure support.

Operational Value Creation:
Led by a Principal with nearly 20 years of executive experience managing $100M+ P&Ls and 400+ person workforces in highly regulated environments , Cinder Capital bridges the gap between shop-floor realities and boardroom strategy. We deploy world-class Lean methodologies, safety culture transformation, and capital allocation strategies to drive sustainable growth.

We are actively seeking acquisition opportunities in Canada.
