Private Equity Group Ownership

A private equity group acquired an $800 million Midwest company. The newly-appointed chief executive hired Coleman Lew to build the infrastructure necessary for the business to grow. Coleman Lew successfully recruited a dozen senior-level executives, including the chief financial officer, vice president of distribution, and senior vice president of human resources. Together, the new executive team recruited, trained, and retained the talent necessary to compete with the company's formidable industry competitors. These recruited executives took the company from a market share of 45 percent to over 60 percent, and in doing so, improved profitability and increased sales from $800 million to $1.7 billion.
