Strategic investors
Investors with category experience and a view on how brands like yours grow.
Services
Capital and partners that understand the brand.
We introduce fashion and consumer businesses to strategic investors, manufacturers and distribution partners — chosen for what they bring to the brand, not just the size of the cheque.
Overview
Capital arrives with opinions attached. For a growing brand, an investor's view of the category, the customer and the pace of growth will shape the business as much as the money will.
We introduce brands to strategic investors who know the category, and to the manufacturing and distribution relationships that turn growth into something durable — in the UK, the UAE and the wider GCC.

Introduce
Direct introductions, with consent on both sides.
Follow through
Close follow-up until both sides decide.
Usually two or three. Each is a named person or firm we know, who has already said they want to hear about an opportunity like yours. A short list of genuine interest is worth more than a long list of names.
Our range sits at roughly £100k to £1m. Below that, an introduction rarely justifies the process for either side. Above it, an institutional adviser will serve you better, and we would rather say so in the first conversation than take the meeting anyway.
No. We describe the opportunity to them without naming you. If they are interested, we tell you who they are, and an introduction is made only once both sides have said yes.
