Garnett Station Partners

Garnett Station Partners provides discretionary investment management to private pooled investment vehicles and affiliated special‑purpose entities, advising qualified investors through private equity funds and related co‑investment vehicles that invest in operating companies and loans. The firm’s Form ADV reports approximately $4.19 billion in assets under management as of December 31, 2025.

The firm’s investment approach emphasizes acquiring controlling interests in middle‑market, consumer‑facing companies and opportunistic distressed or highly leveraged debt positions, coupled with active operational engagement — developing operating plans, assembling management teams and often placing senior personnel on portfolio company boards. Deal sourcing and diligence are described as relationship driven, using a proprietary network with frequent mailings, public relations, conferences and direct diligence outreach to customers, vendors and industry consultants, and the firm routinely structures co‑investments and side‑letter arrangements.

Distinctive features noted in the brochure include a formal Operations Group of non‑investment professionals and a practice of engaging third‑party placement agents for fundraising; the firm also discloses active public marketing. In contrast with many peers, Garnett Station’s disclosures highlight the use of endorsements in advertising and the potential for supplemental portfolio‑level fees and uneven co‑investment allocations or information rights that can create differing economic exposures and reporting for investors.
