Alcuin Capital Partners LLP has today announced the final closing of the Fourth Alcuin Fund L.P. having secured £150 million in commitments, primarily from existing institutional investors and family offices across the UK, Europe and the US, but also including a limited number of new investors.
Alcuin specialises in making £2-15 million investments in growth capital and buyout transactions in UK companies valued between £5 and £30 million across all industry sectors.
The team was founded by Mark Storey and Grace Henderson-Londoño after leaving BancBoston Capital, and were joined by Adrian Lurie in 2011.
The team at Alcuin have now made over fifty investments over a 25 year period, including successful companies such as Caffè Nero, one of the UK’s largest coffee retailers, Agrivert, a leading organic waste recycling and waste-to-energy company, and Krispy Kreme, the UK’s best known doughnut retailer.
In the last few months, Alcuin has led the buyout of AMI, a Bristol based conference and data business, and invested in the buyout of the Groucho Club, the famous Soho based members club.
The Fourth Alcuin Fund anticipates completing a number of new investments over the coming months, and has recently moved into new offices on Sloane Street, London.
