Acquisition criteria

What we look for in a business

We focus on profitable, owner-operated businesses with proven track records, loyal customer bases, and founders who are ready for a thoughtful transition — on their timeline, not ours.

Established track record

20 or more years in business with consistent revenue and a loyal repeat customer base.

Bay Area based

Businesses operating in the San Francisco Bay Area and surrounding counties.

$1M – $10M revenue

Established operations with real employees, real customers, and consistent cash flow.

Founder-led

Owner-operated businesses where the founder is considering succession or retirement.

Any industry

We are industry-agnostic. Loyal customers and consistent cash flow matter more than sector.

Strong local reputation

Customer loyalty built over years — not marketing spend. Word of mouth is the strongest signal.

Our process

Direct, confidential, and straightforward

We reach out directly to business owners — no brokers, no competitive processes. Every conversation is confidential, and we move on the seller's timeline.

Introductory conversation

A confidential call to understand the business, the owner's goals, and what a good outcome looks like.

Confidential review

We review financials and operations under NDA. Information is never shopped or shared.

Letter of intent

Clear terms, simple structure. Seller financing and earnouts available. We move quickly.

Due diligence and close

Thorough but efficient. A transition plan built around the seller's needs, not ours.

Our commitment

Stewardship, not disruption

Every company we acquire continues to operate under its own name, with its own team, serving its existing customers. We don't restructure, rebrand, or replace leadership.

We invest in the businesses we acquire — in their people, their operations, and their capacity to grow — and we take a long-term view of what that means.

We offer seller financing, earnouts, and flexible timelines. We understand that selling a business you've built over decades is not merely a financial transaction.

Our team brings 50+ years of combined industry experience — spanning engineering leadership, lean manufacturing, process automation, data science, and large-scale capital management across Fortune 500 companies. Every acquisition we make, we are personally at the table — from the first conversation with a founder to close.

Portfolio

Operating companies

Each company in the TMDP Capital portfolio operates independently under its original brand, with its original team.
