Firm targets control investments in essential service and manufacturing businesses with $2–$30 million in revenue and $1–$3 million in EBITDA.
WEST PALM BEACH, Fla., July 21, 2025 -- Signal Rock Capital, a private investment firm built to partner with gritty, founder-led companies in overlooked corners of the economy, has officially launched operations.
Co-founded by Sam Hafermann and Grant Husted, Signal Rock focuses on buying and building essential businesses across four core verticals:
- B2B Industrial – Distribution, manufacturing, fire & life safety, pest control, commercial towing, and landscaping.
- Infrastructure Services – OSHA consulting, paving & striping, backflow prevention, traffic control, loading dock maintenance, and tree trimming.
- Consumer Services – Vacation rental maintenance, health & wellness, and 4-wall consumer.
- Healthcare Services – Outsourced MRI, scanning, and diagnostic testing.
The firm targets control investments in companies generating $2–$30 million in revenue and $1–$3 million in EBITDA.
"We started Signal Rock to be the kind of investor we'd want if we were in the owner's shoes," said Hafermann. "No spreadsheets-for-brains. No three-year flip plans. Just a real partnership — grounded in trust, long-term thinking, and a deep respect for what it takes to build something that matters to its customers."
Before founding Signal Rock, Hafermann and Husted worked together at L2 Capital, a family office based in Devon, PA and Miami, FL with a 4x realized track record since 2010. The two founding partners have led or supported more than 30 transactions across the industrial, niche manufacturing, and business service sectors.
