WHY PARTNER WITH SOUTHEAST
EMPLOYEE OWNERSHIP
-
Employee ownership is the core of our strategy; employees own 100% of the common equity in Southeast-sponsored ESOP acquisitions, ensuring all employees have the opportunity to build meaningful ownership.
-
Broad-based equity ownership aligns incentives across the organization, creating more engaged employees and ultimately more successful businesses.
​
LONG-TERM PARTNERS
-
Value creation occurs over years of good capital allocation, strategic decisions, and operational efficiency.
-
Mission-aligned capital providers, Southeast's strategic support, and the permanent nature of the ESOP structure allow for long-term compounding and employee wealth creation.
​LASTING IMPACT​
-
We build upon the founders’ legacy by building sustainable businesses with potentially life-changing opportunities for employee wealth creation.
-
When a business owner sells to a Southeast-sponsored ESOP, they know the company will remain independent for the long term and will not be "flipped" to another investor.
