Brookside Capital Partners is pleased to announce its investment in Stueve Construction (“Stueve”). Founded in 1958 and headquartered in Algona, IA, Stueve is the market-leading provider of design, engineering and construction services for fertilizer storage solutions. Over the course of more than 65 years, Stueve has established itself as a trusted partner to some of the country’s largest and most sophisticated agribusinesses and also invented the “rodless” dry fertilizer storage facility, which is now the industry standard for all large, dry fertilizer storage facilities.

Brookside Capital Partners provided unitranche debt and an equity co-investment to support the buyout of Stueve by Sound Growth Partners, LLC, a Seattle-based private equity firm that invests in niche market leaders within the lower middle market using their One-Stop Buyout™ approach.

“We are grateful for the opportunity to partner with Sound Growth Partners and look forward to supporting them and the Stueve Construction management team as the company enters its next phase of growth,” said Nicholas Ganias, Partner at Brookside Capital Partners.
