Investing in the UK’s Mission Critical Businesses

Investment Philosophy

Bowthorpe was founded to bridge the gap between investment management and operational consultancy

Our approach is to offer not only investment funding but also access to experienced sector and functional experts who collaborate with our management team partners to improve business operations and significantly grow shareholder value

Sector Focus

We invest in UK mission critical services businesses

Our core sector focus includes:

  • Environmental, waste & recycling services

  • Building & technical services

  • Sustainable food production services

  • Healthcare support services

Investment Criteria

We focus on medium sized businesses that have the potential to grow quickly and become market leaders. We look for ambitious managers who are open to working with us to help create value in their businesses

We tend to retain our shareholdings in companies for between three and five years although our primary aim is to exit at the best time for both a business and its shareholders
