Ted Leja, Former CEO, Tree Island Industries, Inc.
“From the time Tricor acquired Tree Island in 1997 to our IPO in 2002 and Tricor’s final sale of its investment in 2004, Tricor has proven itself to be trustworthy, responsive, and strategically valuable. Tricor delivered on all the promises made by the three founders to the management team at acquisition. They let us do what we did best, but were approachable and value-add when their advice or expertise was required. They provided significant financial and transactional support when we acquired our US clip-ons. Tricor never failed to involve management in all strategic matters, bringing or helping us evaluate numerous consolidation and exit opportunities. In the end, Tricor’s exit from Tree Island was seamless. Their ownership helped us create real value for all stakeholders.”
Frank Dennis, CEO, Swiss Water Decaffeinated Coffee Income Fund
“One of the areas where Tricor really added value was in Swiss Water’s transition from small division of a large conglomerate to a significant standalone business. Tricor helped us establish financial, information and risk management systems. They provided great counsel, leadership and encouragement to the management team. Tricor was very focused on assisting us strategically and operationally throughout their ownership of Swiss Water. Even as Tricor has exited their investment in Swiss Water, they continue to add strategic value. They are truly a friend of our firm.”
Pushminder Judge, President, Matrix Packaging Inc.
“Tricor has been an exceptional partner for Matrix. Substantial value has been created for our shareholders as Tricor provided the capital and strategic assistance we needed to grow our business.”
Oscar B. Fears, CEO, Tharco Packaging, Inc.
“Tricor has given us the operating autonomy to run our business, while providing strategic and financial support to execute on our growth strategy. We feel fortunate to have Tricor as a partner.”
