Creative Resource Group (CRG) of Dayton, Texas, which specializes in plant logistic support and safety services, recently completed a recapitalization with CapStreet Group, a Houston-based private equity firm that invests in owner-managed, lower middle market companies headquartered in Texas and surrounding states. CRG takes care of critical support services like trash, water, break tents, cleaning, busing, flaggers, operators and safety attendants, which frees up the plant owners and general contractors to focus on core path critical services. Additionally, CRG provides transportation and shuttle services, and currently transports in excess of 3,000 people daily.
IVS Investment Banking served as an adviser to CRG during the transaction. IVS Investment Banking offers complete investment banking services to assist in buying, selling or growing companies. IVS Investment Banking has the knowledge and experience necessary to complete a number of investment banking services including management buyouts, and seller and buyer side transactions.
“I have known of IVS Investment Banking as a BIC Alliance company for many years, and I have worked closely with BIC Alliance in the past,” said president and owner of CRG. “So when I was considering a recapitalization, it was only natural to approach IVS President Thomas Brinsko and his team.
“I’ve truly enjoyed working with IVS Managing Director John Zapalac throughout the process. IVS has really delivered on what they said they could do. If you are considering a recapitalization or selling your company, I definitely recommend IVS Investment Banking.”
IVS Investment Banking delivers premium value to business owners by providing merger and acquisition, recapitalization, management-led buyout, private placement and consulting services. IVS works with owners and management teams to sell or acquire manufacturing, distribution and service-oriented businesses associated with the energy sector.
No other investment banking group in the energy market has IVS Investment Banking’s broad and deep access to the range of both strategic and financial investors. IVS Investment Banking’s relationship with financial investors comes from its managing director’s Wall Street experience financing leveraged buyouts. This “dual path” of strategic and financial investors the company runs is one of the distinguishing elements of IVS Investment Banking’s process.
“We are delighted about our new partnership with CapStreet,” said Taylor. “CapStreet has a great reputation and a significant amount of experience in successfully growing companies like ours. We look forward to working with the CapStreet team and leveraging their expertise as we enter into our next phase of growth.”
In addition to the existing management team, Brian Bourque has joined the company as COO. Bourque has extensive experience working with industrial service companies and was previously CFO and executive vice president of Sprint Industrial Holdings.
