Pioneering Growth Strategies That Work
Family Office in the Southeastern United States
Solom Capital is a family office in the Southeastern United States focused on buying and building market-leading companies, in partnership with founders and management, at the lower end of the middle market across a wide range of industries. We strive to partner with “small companies achieving big results.” With roots tracing back to the late ‘90s, we invest in companies with good fundamentals and tremendous growth potential.
Beyond mere capital, Solom Capital makes a significant investment of time as actively engaged business partners whose long-term interests are clearly aligned with those of the company’s management team. More specifically, we partner with founders and experienced management teams whose only limitations for continued growth are long-term capital and the knowledge and expertise of how to take their company to the next level.
“A family office is a great option for founders looking to stay on board to grow their business, preserve the company legacy, and work collaboratively with a hands-on capital partner.”

Active Involvement
Our mission at Solom Capital is to partner with founders and exceptional management teams to take the company to the next level and build long-term value. By consistently applying our insights, judgment, and well-structured capital over the long term, we help management teams make strategic decisions and investments that enable them to grow and compete in dynamic markets.
Partner with Management
Solom Capital collaborates with management, working together to create the corporate strategy, financial strategy, and capital allocation. It is not our intention to run the company’s day-to-day operations. Our efforts are designed to achieve the goal of preserving and enhancing the long-term value of the business.
Solom Capital works closely with the management team to develop a growth plan, which is a disciplined and rigorous identification of a company’s key issues and opportunities. This leads to clear, long-term strategic and operating plans with specific milestones and definitive priorities, ultimately resulting in a common set of expectations and goals shared by all. Finally, time-tested tracking and measurement systems are installed, which allow the team to follow key drivers of performance, productivity, and efficiency.
