CMG Companies
CMG Companies is a collection of separate and independent entities, holding controlling investments predominantly in the multi-unit and franchise sector, spanning restaurants, hotels, retail, sports, automotive, and real estate industries. We have partnered with or are currently associated with several renowned brands, including KFC, Taco Bell, Marriott, Hilton, IHG, Sonic, Little Caesars, Rent-A-Center, Ace Hardware, and Valvoline, among others. While continuing to expand in the restaurant and hotel industries, we are also keen on diversifying and leveraging our strengths. These include our proven ability to operate successfully within a franchise system, our desire to scale and consolidate by rolling up smaller franchisees, acquiring corporate units through divestiture, and embarking on new unit development. Our interest lies in franchise systems across various sectors, including fitness, health & wellness, niche retail, specialty food, sports, automotive, business services, and home services, based on our analysis. From an investment standpoint, CMG Companies is unique. We have not only owned and operated our businesses but have also invested our own capital and raised funds from limited partners (LPs), including both institutional investors and high-net-worth accredited individuals. CMG Companies should primarily be recognized as an operator, then as a sponsor investing its own capital, and finally as a family office with a group of partners that invest together. We operate with a partnership model, focusing on long-term investments characterized by a patient approach. CMG Companies is not a legal entity.
