BlackHawk Industrial - Rock Hill

General information

BlackHawk Industrial is a new entity formed by Bill Scheller and Brazos Private Equity Partners.

BlackHawk Industrial is implementing a very active buy-and-build strategy in the highly fragmented, $400 billion industrial distribution market. BlackHawk believes that the industrial distribution industry has over 100,000 independent distributors with the majority of these companies being small, regionally focused, family-owned, or owner-operated businesses.

BlackHawk Industrial believes that these smaller distributors have very strong customer relationships in their local markets and out compete the “big boys”. These successful small regional companies typically lack scale, resources, and capital to grow their businesses.

BlackHawk and Brazos have identified a pipeline of several opportunities and intends for BlackHawk to be an ongoing and active acquirer of other industrial distributors.
