Charlie Gifford

Charlie co-founded New Heritage Capital in 2006, and has been investing private equity in founder-owned, lower middle market businesses for 25 years. Charlie leads the firm’s origination practice, focusing his efforts on generating new investment opportunities and developing and maintaining intermediary relationships.

“Our investment thesis is simple – we back founder-owners who are buyers, not sellers. They typically are too young to retire, and aren’t interested in being someone’s employee. We buy-in, we don’t buy-out.”
