About Champlain Capital

Achieving great results by working together.

EXPERIENCED AND RELIABLE

With deep operating experience, the Champlain Capital team has a first-hand understanding of the challenges portfolio companies face and the hurdles PE investors confront. We believe that holding ourselves to high standards — being honest, transparent and easy to work with — is the best way to achieve growth and success.

KEEPING THINGS SIMPLE

We find complex financial structures add little to transactions except indecision. So unlike traditional PE firms, Champlain Capital provides the entire purchase price – all the equity and debt. Transactions are faster and simpler with one capital provider and we eliminate the restrictions and uncertainty imposed by third-party lenders.

Leveraging our experience as smart, savvy professionals for over two decades.

Founded in 2000, Champlain Capital’s team of senior-level leaders serve companies out of its San Francisco and Boston offices. We add value not only by collaborating with management on strategic planning, organizational assessment, talent acquisition, operating functions, accretive add-on acquisitions, infrastructure capital and resource networks, but by being pragmatic business partners with the operational and financial experience to address those unexpected challenges that inevitably arise.

Aligning interests is priority one.
