Our Criteria for New Partners

Value Fit
‍
It is important to Tradepost that its potential Portfolio Partners share Tradepost’s basic value structure.  This commonality builds immediate trust and enables us to work together to unlock additional value in the business.

‍Leadership
‍
Tradepost is looking for leadership teams with strong operational and growth - either organic or inorganic - skills.

‍Mid-Market
‍
Tradepost prefers investing in businesses with enterprise values ranging from $10mm to $100mm, although we will partner with long-term relationships if a good opportunity is larger in size.

‍Profitable
‍
Tradepost focuses on profitable businesses, which, if run properly, can simultaneously distribute cash and re-invest in the business’s growth.

‍Industry
‍
Tradepost’s interests are not sector specific. Instead, we simply need to be able to understand the depth and durability of the business’s competitive moat.
