Mentha

Creating durable success:

• • Mentha is a private equity firm focused on profitable SMEs headquartered in the Netherlands, Belgium and Denmark characterised by sustainable growth opportunities, both organically and through buy-and-build and internationalisation. More specifically, partnerships are entered into with inspired management teams of companies with an EBITDA of €2m to €15m, mostly within the focus areas of technology, business services, consumer, health & wellbeing and advanced manufacturing. With 20 portfolio companies and about 25 (add-on) acquisitions per year, Mentha has built a strong track record. The company culture can best be described as authentic, down-to-earth and human. The team consists of more than 30 professionals with diverse personalities and backgrounds.
  • We help inspired entrepreneurs and enterprising management teams to bring their goals and dreams to life. We started working at our kitchen table in 2007. Now, we are a strong collective of diverse specialists. All have helped to create and realise the transition necessary to enable companies to safely reach the next stage of their evolution. We enjoy and are energised by these sorts of challenges.

How do we work?

• • Mentha aspires to be actively involved with the portfolio companies, acting as a pragmatic and involved partner to support management teams in executing ambitious business plans. We aim to build close partnerships between management and shareholder(s) by encouraging members of the management team to co-invest in the business. The team has gained significant insight and experience in many different industries and has access to an extensive network of industry experts.
  • Our method and approach only allow us to participate in a limited number of partnerships per year. We have to choose. Once we have chosen, we fully commit ourselves, together with the company’s leadership, to building the next phase of its journey. Our approach is effective. Since our founding, we have helped many companies move towards a stronger, more valuable and more sustainable future.
