Growth capital backed by experience

At Charter Growth Capital, we believe great companies are built on vision, resilience, and a long-term commitment to people. We partner with lower middle market businesses and management teams seeking growth capital, strategic support, and a trusted partner to help achieve their long-term objectives. Our approach is grounded in the values that have guided our firm for more than 30 years: integrity, partnership, open-mindedness, and a genuine enjoyment of the work we do.

Drawing on experience as investors, operators, and advisors, we provide more than capital – we bring strategic insight, operational perspective, and a broad network of relationships to support our portfolio companies. We believe the strongest partnerships are built on trust, transparency, and alignment, and we remain open-minded in our pursuit of creative solutions that help businesses navigate opportunities, create value, and achieve long-term success.
Beyond Investing

While our investment partnerships span a wide range of industries and geographies, Charter Growth Capital remains deeply committed to the values that define who we are. Headquartered in Grand Rapids, we believe strong businesses and strong communities go hand in hand. As a founding member of 100 Businesses That Care West Michigan and through annual team volunteer initiatives, we actively support organizations that strengthen our local community.

Our people-first culture is central to everything we do. We foster an environment where curiosity is encouraged, diverse perspectives are valued, and relationships come first. We take our work seriously, but not ourselves, creating a collaborative and approachable culture that has helped earn recognition as one of West Michigan's Best and Brightest Companies to Work For for 10 consecutive years.

A Team you can trust to navigate what’s next.

Wherever you're headed, our growth experts are here to make every step of the journey a success. We bring broad industry expertise and deep business insight to every engagement, working closely with you to navigate complexity and uncover opportunities. From start to finish, you'll work directly with senior members of our team, ensuring experienced guidance and a high-touch, collaborative approach every step of the way.
