Investor Seeking Searchers - Aligned and Flexible Capital Supporting U.S. and European Searchers

Hi all – we’re Grupo Santa Marta. We’ve been on both sides of the table — as operators and as investors. Our roots are in Spain, with reach across Europe and the U.S. We've built, bought, and scaled businesses ourselves, so we deeply understand what it's like to carry the weight post-close. Our goal is to be the most value-add capital partner — aligned, helpful, and hands-on when it matters most. We’re not a fund-of-funds or high-volume investor: We selectively back a small number of opportunities where we see strong alignment and can be meaningfully involved — not just with capital, but as hands-on partners supporting operators through the full lifecycle of acquisition, growth, and beyond. If you're under LOI or close, and looking for a thoughtful, entrepreneurial capital partner — we’d love to connect. What we look for - We’re especially drawn to businesses with: $1M+ of EBITDA High cash-flow conversion Recurring revenue model Industry with strong tailwinds Sub-5x acquisition multiple How we invest: Equity checks from $300K–$1M+, with co-investment capacity Comfortable being an anchor or part of a high-conviction group Open to both traditional and self-funded searchers Geography: U.S. / Spain / Western Europe Structure: Flexible — majority or minority, but always aligned What We Offer (Beyond Capital): Operating Experience Board-Level Sparring International Reach Co-Investment Firepower Low-Ego, High Conviction
