Drawing on decades of experience in retail investing, JH Partners works with consumer-facing brands to improve their marketing strategies and help them grow by reaching more customers. Early on, the firm invested in businesses like Bare Essentials and Design Within Reach, both of which later underwent initial public offerings. Since then, JH Partners has purchased stakes in numerous brands, including Kate Somerville, La Perla, and Draper James.

Over the past eighteen months the firm has executed a number successful exits including the sales of all or part of its stakes in Alex and Ani, J McLaughlin, Frette, Country Home Products, GoSmile, Bell Automotive, and Kate Somerville, of which it owned 75 percent, to Unilever, a large corporation managing such brands as Dove and Lipton. Acquirers of JH Partners' stakes in these companies include private equity firms, family offices, and global consumer brands.

JH Partners’ long-term success owes much to its executive leadership, which brings a combined seven decades of experience working with and improving retail brands. For more information about the firm, visit www.jhpartners.com.
