We’re More Than Just Investors
Three Key Areas of Impact
Greenhouse Scholars Program
Since 2015, Eagle actively supports and sponsors Greenhouse Scholars, which is focused on sustainable, generational community change--especially in the lowest resource communities. Greenhouse is a diverse community of leaders creating results through the transformative power of higher education by working with the most inspiring role models from these communities, and by launching hundreds of new companies and projects.
Environmental, Social, and Governance
As an organization, Eagle is mindful of the ethical and societal impact of the investment activities of its investment funds. Eagle seeks to approach its investments, governance and operations in a manner designed to align its obligations to its investors, portfolio companies, and employees.
Summer Internship Program
Every summer Eagle welcomes a select group of high performing current college students as interns to learn the in’s and out’s of private equity investing. Several previous Eagle interns have landed competitive internships and full-time job offers at prestigious investment banks and other financial institutions.
Eagle Merchant Partners understood Caliber Car Wash’s growth story and value proposition from the beginning and was able to efficiently and effectively provide the capital that we needed to recapitalize our business. Eagle swiftly helped us build out key processes and procedures that enabled Caliber to create a robust new unit pipeline and invest in key back-office personnel and data reporting systems.
Danny York

Eagle Merchant Partners was an incredible catalyst for growth at Chicken Salad Chick and was committed to investing into the right resources and team to fulfill our long-term vision for the company.

Scott Deviney
CEO
Eagle was a true partner to me and the entire management team at The Recreational Group, and we couldn’t have achieved our growth and success on the same timeline without them. Eagle was an excellent financial partner that provided the institutional knowledge and resources to support our company’s execution of multiple add-on acquisitions and large capital equipment investments. We were able to greatly expand both our geographic reach and vertical integration as a result.
Ron Bennett
CEO / co-founder
At United PF Partners, we combined several businesses at closing and Eagle was critical to helping us build a strong foundation during the integration process. Eagle also led multiple re-financings that allowed UPF to execute an aggressive organic and inorganic unit growth strategy.
Trey Owen
CEO / co-founder
Eagle Merchant Partners and Recreational Group forged a strong, collaborative partnership that resulted in rapid growth and value creation for the existing owners and management team.
