Our approach to the consumer sector revolves around identifying the fastest growing consumer trends with power macro drivers. We focus on demographics, an aging population, obesity, self care, convenience driven consumers and catalysts that change consumer sentiment. Our Healthy Living investment thesis has led to the early identification of the nutritional boom in the mid 1990s, followed by the natural/organic mainstreaming trend, the specialty coffee explosion, weight management acceleration, direct selling market share gains, fitness growth and now the mainstreaming of functional foods. An emerging healthcare crisis is a long-term incremental driver of the empowerment of cnsumers to make personal health choices that should drive continued growth of the industries we follow.
Our Health, Wellness & Lifestyle (HW&L) franchise draws on 15 years of Healthy Living® transaction expertise and research to provide unparalleled corporate finance services to the growing health, wellness and lifestyle companies that are catalysts for today's consumer industry.*
