Our Approach to Investing

Arlon Capital Partners makes direct, privately-negotiated investments into companies across multiple industries. Working with significant permanent capital and the ability to leverage nearly 200 years of insight and global relationships, we have a flexible investment mandate free from typical fund restrictions. As a result, when we make an investment we are able to do so with an indefinite holding period in mind, which allows us to become true partners with management. Additionally, Arlon Capital Partners is able to invest at various stages of a company's development – from expansion stage to buyout – employing creative equity solutions. Our sector expertise includes but is not limited to:

  • Basic Industries
  • Consumer Products
  • Financial Services
  • Food & Agribusiness
  • Media & Communications

Leveraging Continental Grain Company's and Arlon's principals' deep experience in these sectors makes us value-added, long-term partners to outstanding management teams throughout the world. Our investment focus is on the United States, Western Europe and China.

Our Approach to Partnership

We approach every partnership with the goal of being the partner of choice for management teams who are seeking long-term, value-added investors with whom they can build trust-based relationships.

Our investment horizon is guided by the amount of time it takes to help a business realize its full potential. Strengthened by a 200-year tradition of investing in partnerships with exceptional management teams, we leverage our powerful network to help our companies grow in scale and value.
