One Company, One Vision, One Future
Our Competitive Edge
We specialise in acquiring exceptional British companies, ensuring smooth succession for business owners.
Secure your legacy long-term
We are not a Private Equity or a strategic trade buyer. We are a solution to business owners without a transition plan seeking to exit.
Our goal is to acquire one business, and grow it over the long term. We hope to build on your legacy and be your successors so you continue to feel proud of your company.
Flexible buyers
Our aim is to understand your business and your goals for the future.
We can offer you a simple full exit or have you stay on board as a co-investor, and accompany us in our journey.
We come with a full-time CEO who will take a hands-on approach and understands the importance of people in business.
Our objective is to build on your current management team, and foster the culture that you worked very hard to build, allowing you to move on.
Human centric full-time operator

Differences vs Private Equity
Differences vs Trade Buyers
What Makes Us Different
We Hold Business for the Long-Term
No "Synergies"
We do not buy businesses with the aim of selling after three to five years. We are long-term owners, valuing the future over short-term gain.
Prudent Use of Debt
Remain Independent
We do not try to maximise the amount of debt we place on the companies we buy. We are patient owners, and will not trade longevity for a faster return.
Your business will maintain its independence, keeping its brand, and continuing to operate largely as it did prior to Epilogue's involvement.
No Jargon, No Fees
Streamlined & Deliverable Process
We prefer the common sense approach. We avoid jargon wherever possible, and do not charge monitoring or other fees to our companies.
We pride ourselves on setting clear expectations, moving at speed, and not signalling interest in opportunities we are unlikely to close.
Trade buyers typically look to achieve “synergies,” removing staff in order to improve their returns. We value your culture, and want to keep your team intact.
Unlocking Potential
