TSG Consumer Partners has made an investment in American Technologies, the nation’s largest family-owned and operated restoration contractor.
American Technologies (ATI) was founded in 1989 by CEO Gary Moore and as part of this transaction the Moore family will retain an ownership interest in the business and ATI management will continue to lead the company in their current positions.
“We are excited to work with a high-caliber partner like TSG, who recognizes and values our family roots, unique company culture and unwavering dedication to our customers and communities,” said Mr. Moore. “We’re confident that their collaborative approach and experience growing best-in-class brands will help accelerate our expansion into new and existing markets, while we continue to invest in our training, technology and marketing and deliver best-in-class service to our customers with the indispensable agility and personal touch of a family-owned business.”
ATI specializes in providing restoration, environmental and reconstruction services following natural and man-made disasters. The company is headquartered in Anaheim, California, and has 20 branch offices nationwide with over 1,200 employees.
“ATI has established itself as a leading national player in disaster recovery services through its highly differentiated, compassionate approach to customer service and innovative, tech-enabled customer solutions,” said Michael Layman, a managing director at TSG. “We look forward to partnering with the Moore family and the management team and upholding the founding family’s strong legacy and corporate values as it scales its national platform through strategic acquisitions and capitalizes on organic growth opportunities.”
San Francisco-based TSG invests from $200 million to $800 million of equity in high-growth, branded consumer companies. Sectors of specific interest include beauty, fitness and outdoor, food and beverage, personal care, household, lifestyle, pet, restaurant, and retail. In January 2019, the firm closed its eighth fund with an oversubscribed $4 billion of limited partner capital commitments.
