Trusta Industries buys and builds leading industrial companies in the UK.
We have a 'buy and own forever' mindset.
At Trusta we have a 'buy and own forever' philosophy. We believe the best decisions in business are made when we think about the long term. This is only possible with a long term ownership philosophy.
We believe that the core of every business is not its revenue or profit, but its people. At Trusta we look to empower the people within our companies and our businesses are run in a decentralised way. Decisions are made as close to our customers as possible, not at Trusta HQ.
Looking after business owner's legacies is at the heart of everything we do. We keep the company name above the door, we keep the location the same, and we will not look to merge companies or talk about 'synergies'. In fact we would go as far to say 'synergies' is a banned word at Trusta Industries.
Everything we do is in the industrial sector. We are experts in our fields and we stick tightly within our circle of competence. This provides a great internal network of industrial specialists that all companies can benefit from.
We are looking to partner with business owners of UK headquartered manufacturing or distribution businesses in the industrial sector.
B2B, or business to business, rather than business to consumer is where we operate.
Most companies constantly talk about 'total addressable market' size and focus on very large markets only. At Trusta we do exactly the opposite.
We focus on partnering with market leading companies that are very strong in their niche.
We focus on finding great companies and and help to accelerate their growth. We are therefore looking for businesses that have a long term track record of always being profitable.
We like to see gross margins historically above 40% and EBIT greater than £0.5m. This is just a guideline though.
There is no substitute for a face to face meeting. Please let us know if this is of interest and we can come to you to learn more about how we can partner together ahead.
