Why Painted Wolf

Why

Painted Wolf

After over twenty-five years of work building my business, selling it was a huge decision. The Painted Wolf team kept all their commitments, retaining my long-tenured employees and paying my seller note off several years early. Under their ownership the business grew to levels I never thought possible. If you're considering selling, they will be great custodians of what you have built.
James A., LinenMaster Founder

When acquiring Cy’s we were fortunate that we could be selective with investors. We wanted Painted Wolf involved for both their knowledge of the laundry space as well as their unique perspectives on technology enablement. They’ve contributed consistently over the years, visiting sites multiple times, and have provided a strong resource as we execute on follow-on acquisitions.
