Mentha

Headquartered in Amsterdam and founded in 2006, Mentha is an independent private equity firm active at the lower end of the mid-market. We invest in established, mid-sized and profitable companies with clear opportunities for growth along multiple avenues, such as organic growth, expansion in new markets or through buy-and-build. Our team is a strong collective of investment professionals, with solid financial and operational business experience. We like to team up with entrepreneurs and enterprising management teams to jointly realize ambitious growth plans. With our companies, we seek an active approach that is based on true entrepreneurship, growth acceleration and transformation, and is spurred by the human factor and sustainability.

With over 120 transactions realized over the last decade, we have a strong track record in market consolidation strategies and operational transformations. Our equity investments fluctuate between €5m and €50m per transaction, in companies with EBITDA ranging from €2m to €20m. Our transactions typically involve founding entrepreneurs or family businesses that are looking for a partner to help navigate their next phase of growth.
