ABOUT
In geotechnical engineering, a “root composite” describes the bond between plant roots and soil — a natural reinforcement that strengthens and stabilizes the ground.
We see businesses the same way.
At their core are people — the roots — providing strength, energy, and life. The soil is everything else: the resources, opportunities, and systems that support growth. Strengthening either the roots or the soil makes the whole foundation stronger.
At RootComposite, we invest in both: nurturing people and enhancing resources to build resilient, thriving businesses ready for the future.
What we believe…
A business is more than just a source of profit.
It is a reflection of the passion, dedication, and craftsmanship of the people behind it.
At its best, a business uplifts not only its customers, but also its employees, their families, and the communities it serves.
We believe that by honoring these roots, businesses can create a lasting impact that reaches far beyond the bottom line.
Our Approach
At Root Composite, we are not a traditional private equity firm.We believe in building true partnerships —
grounded in trust, collaboration, and a shared vision for the future.
Our principles are guided in simplicity:
Long Term Commitment
Rome wasn’t built in a day, and neither is a great business. We invest with a long-term mindset and stand by our partners through every stage of growth.
Focus
on the Roots
The strength of any business lies in its people. We focus on nurturing the individuals and teams who form the foundation for lasting success.
Enhance the Composite
We work alongside leadership to identify opportunities to strengthen, enhance, and unify what already makes the business special — creating a resilient, thriving organization for the future.
