Consumer & Retail Expertise. Flexible Credit Solutions.

Comvest Credit Partners provides flexible debt financing solutions to help drive meaningful growth of middle-market companies throughout North America. Our veteran Consumer & Retail team has structured, financed and closed dozens of transactions throughout the vertical over nearly two decades through fluctuating economic and market cycles.

Our experience structuring debt capital solutions spans a broad array of consumer-facing markets, including consumer products, multi-unit retail, e-commerce, and food and beverage. We are well-versed in the many complexities of consumer and retail-related businesses, including subsector trends and dynamics, that can affect operations, growth, and capital needs.

We apply this depth of understanding to our collaborative investment process to support borrowers’ immediate and ongoing funding needs. The results are bespoke financing solutions focused primarily on senior debt capital, with loan structures and terms tailored to each situation. We can provide considerable immediate capital of up to $300 million or more per transaction as well as delayed draws and follow-on investments to help companies pursue additional growth opportunities.
