We are businessmen dedicated to creating long-term value through practical, results-oriented partnerships. Based in Houston, we understand the complexities of scaling, operating, and turning around businesses based on our firsthand experience. We firmly believe the best path to generational wealth is through a well-structured liquidity event, driven by strong earnings and sustainable cash flow. At Teakwood, we focus on executing the fundamentals that build profitable businesses ready for long-term success.
Our expertise spans managing special situations, executing turnarounds, cutting costs, building sales organizations, driving revenue growth, M&A opportunities, and structuring flexible deals. Our experience covers the complete lifecycle of lower-middle market companies—from startup to successful exit. Teakwood partners exclusively with founders and management teams of early-stage, growth-oriented, or turnaround-focused businesses, with a clear goal of preparing for meaningful liquidity events such as strategic exits, recapitalizations, dividend recaps, and management buyouts etc.
