What Trinity Hunt Partners buys

Trinity Hunt Partners is a Dallas private equity firm that builds services companies through buy-and-build. It works in business services and consumer services, and its newer platforms cover professional services (accounting, economic consulting, management consulting, HR and payroll), commercial HVAC and HVAC parts distribution, commercial landscaping and paving, industrial repair, healthcare services and digital marketing. Its criteria point to companies with at least $10 million of revenue and $2 million of EBITDA, with equity checks from about $15 million and co-investment for larger deals. It closed its $700 million Fund VII in February 2024 and lists more than $2.5 billion of assets under management.

A typical deal starts with a founder-owned company that becomes the base of a new platform, sometimes led by an outside executive the firm brings in, followed by a steady run of add-ons. A smaller owner is most likely to meet Trinity Hunt as an add-on to a platform such as NexCore, Sage Surface Partners, Stonefield Economics, Allvia or Elevation Landscape Group, each of which says it wants more partner companies.

Greymont’s take

How Trinity Hunt Partners fits a seller

Trinity Hunt suits founders of services businesses who want to stay involved and grow through acquisitions. Its releases show leaders staying on after the deal: the three Berger founding partners, Todd Fisher and his partners at Fisher Management Partners, and TNT Dental's CEO alongside its co-founders. Expect the firm to add management around you, such as a new CEO, CFO or head of M&A, and to buy add-ons at a fast pace. IMS Legal Strategies made 14 acquisitions and Aperture nine before they were sold.

Owners joining an existing platform as an add-on should ask how much of their brand and local leadership will survive integration. Owners selling a company that would become a new platform should ask whether Trinity Hunt plans to install an outside CEO and who the likely next owner is, since its two most recent exits went to other private equity firms, Genstar Capital and Uplift Investors.

Questions owners ask

Does Trinity Hunt buy HVAC companies?

Yes. Its NexCore platform buys commercial HVAC, plumbing and electrical service firms and reached ten acquisitions in August 2025 with Action Air Systems and Accutemp Engineering. In July 2025 it also started an HVAC parts distribution platform with Blackhawk Supply, now Averon Group.

How big does a company need to be for Trinity Hunt?

Its criteria page points to about $10 million of revenue and $2 million of EBITDA for a new platform, with equity checks from about $15 million. Smaller firms usually join as add-ons, such as the paving and valuation firms added to Sage Surface Partners and Stonefield Economics.

Do founders stay involved after Trinity Hunt invests?

Often, yes. The founding partners of Berger Consulting Group and the partners of Fisher Management Partners kept leadership roles after the firm invested in 2026, and TNT Dental's CEO stayed on with its co-founders in 2025.

Does Trinity Hunt own IT services companies?

Yes. It owns Dataprise, an IT managed services provider based outside Washington, D.C., along with technology consulting firms Argano and Improving, all from its Fund V. Its new platforms since 2025 have been in other services sectors.
