A private holding company committed to acquiring and operating exceptional businesses across multiple industries — built to last, structured to compound.
Rhodes Capital Group LLC is a Georgia-based private holding company founded to acquire, own, and grow profitable operating businesses for the long term. We are not a fund. We do not flip companies. We are permanent owners who take an active, disciplined interest in the businesses we operate.
Our structure is simple by design — lean at the holding level with concentrated expertise deployed at the subsidiary level. We seek businesses with durable economics, capable management, and clear competitive advantages in their markets.
"The best business is one you would be comfortable owning for the next twenty years — even if the market closed tomorrow."
Our approach to capital allocation draws from a century of institutional investment wisdom: favor concentrated bets in understood businesses, resist the urge to diversify into complexity, and let time do the compounding work.
We measure ourselves not by IRR, but by the long-term health and market position of the businesses we steward.
Each company in the RCG portfolio represents a long-term ownership commitment — not a position to be exited at the next favorable multiple.
Rhodes Capital Group is led by a founder who has spent over a decade inside the businesses he owns — not above them. That distinction drives every decision made at the holding company level.
The management philosophy at RCG is one of accountability, transparency, and long-term thinking. We hold ourselves to the same standards we expect of the businesses we acquire.
If you've built a profitable business and are thinking about what comes next — whether that's a full exit, a partial transition, or a structured partnership — Rhodes Capital Group may be the right conversation to have.
We are not private equity. We don't buy to restructure and resell. We acquire businesses with the intention of operating them for the long term, preserving what makes them valuable, and investing in their continued growth.
Whether you're a business owner, potential strategic partner, or professional researching the firm, we welcome the conversation. Our team responds to all substantive inquiries within two business days.
