Jumbo Industries is an industrial manufacturing holding company that provides a platform for global growth by investing in sustainable businesses with long-term value ambitions, built on strong convictions to hold for the long term.
Jumbo is active across Central and Eastern Europe investing in businesses with global ambitions. Although we are industry agnostic, we invest in consumer, media and industrial sectors as well as on new technologies.
We are interested in providing businesses and management teams with capital and resources to help experienced leaders and their teams execute their strategic plans. We provide debt and equity capital along with perspective, relationships, and a network of supportive businesses with a shared commitment to growth.
Our team comprises former executives from leading pan-European companies in consumer and industrial services, alongside entrepreneurs with proven experience in scaling start-ups, all supported by skilled business analysts with strong computer science backgrounds.
Our strategy will lead to substantial inorganic growth through acquisitions and sustained organic growth for our existing portfolio.
The strategy will give our leader-entrepreneurs the room to generate sustained growth andallow formerly family-owned businesses to dynamically develop and secure their future.
To achieve this, we have defined three growth drivers:
1. Acquisitions
2. Go-to-market playbook
3. Engineering competence
1.
Our operating partner will assume leadership immediately
2.
We are comfortable with transitions as short as three months
3.
We can be creative to help the seller achieve all their objectives
4.
We focus on retaining all employees and protecting customer, supplier and community relationships
Our sweet spot:
1.
Prefer sellers who want to retire or transition out
2.
Focus more on finding good businesses, less on specific industries
3.
EBITDA or pre-tax profit between €1,000,000 and €2,000,000
4.
History of sustained profitability
5.
We prefer to avoid early-stage, rapid growth, technology, life sciences and real estate development-related opportunities
Aaron Toth
Operating Partner, Jumbo
At Jumbo, we provide practical support and day-to-day management tailored to each venture's specific needs.
We understand that every entrepreneur and project is different, and we believe that creativity, courage, and commitment are essential qualities for building something successful. That’s why we take the time to properly understand each project and carefully assess its potential — both technologically and commercially.
We also know that early-stage companies often rely just as much on strong, non-financial support from their investors as they do on funding. Our approach is built on close cooperation with founders, open and honest communication, and a focus on building solid, long-term business relationships. Beyond that, we’re actively involved in initiatives that help increase the chances of success for the companies we work with.
Private investor funds are the base for Jumbo Industries engagements. This ensures investment prudence and full transparency to both entrepreneurs as well as all other stakeholders.
