Hello from Drew Sheinman

I hope this finds you and your family healthy and safe during these challenging times.

I wanted to share an update with you since leaving Endeavor (WME-IMG) where I was fortunate to work with the greatest executive and celebrity talent in the world to develop and monetize new “white space” ideas and ventures. I continue to grow businesses as an advisor, investor and board member.

My belief that capital is a commodity led to the creation of Brand Velocity Partners, a differentiated private equity firm that acquires and grows lower‐middle market businesses through the application of its capital and marketing expertise. We accelerate the growth of our portfolio companies by combining the alchemy of white space ideas with the exceptional investment track record from Steve Lebowitz and Austin Ramos, marketing expertise from Larry Rothstein and his award-winning agency Source Communications, and John Goldman an esteemed sports industry lawyer. See our BVP Overview.

Since launching late last year, we’ve acquired two portfolio companies. Original Footwear is the largest contractual supplier of tactical footwear to the U.S. Department of Defense, with additional product lines for first responders and a rapidly growing consumer business (Press). Our second acquisition, Magma Products, is the largest manufacturer of barbeque grills designed for use on boats with an exciting plan to enter new markets (Press).

BVP’s value proposition has been well received by business owners and investors. We are actively sourcing new acquisitions with companies generating more than $2mm EBITDA where we can apply our investment and brand marketing expertise.

Please reach out with your ideas for potential acquisitions and/or if I can be of help to you.

Above all, stay well.

Drew
