Overview
Heritage Holding is a private equity firm that buys majority stakes in founder- and family-led U.S. businesses and grows them over the long term. It typically targets platform investments with enterprise values of $5–$100 million and raises capital from institutions and family offices. The firm differentiates itself through a hands-on, collaborative approach: it provides operational support, partners with existing management, and uses bolt-on acquisitions to scale. Unlike firms focused on short-term exits, Heritage Holding pursues patient, long-duration capital to build durable value rather than financial engineering. Its goal is to create sustainable growth and value by expanding profitable companies across sectors such as business services, healthcare, IT and industrial services, wealth management, and niche areas including MSPs, remote patient monitoring, commercial HVAC, power services, hydrovac, and RIAs managing $200–$750 million AUM.
