Polar Star Capital Partners

Polar Star Capital Partners is a private equity firm based in Salt Lake City, Utah, founded in 2017. The firm specializes in bolt-on acquisitions and buyouts, focusing on healthy operating companies with a minimum EBITDA of $3 million. Polar Star typically invests between $10 million to $50 million and prefers to establish control or minority positions in privately held companies. The firm seeks to partner with strong management teams and provides collaborative, long-term capital that aligns with management initiatives. While the firm is industry agnostic, it avoids investments in real estate, distressed assets, development or project finance, and start-ups. Polar Star has developed significant expertise across various sectors and recently acquired a controlling interest in Meridian Restaurants Unlimited, a major franchisee in the North American Burger King network.
