Polar Star Capital Partners

Polar Star Capital Partners is a private equity general partnership founded and managed by James Winder, who brings together the resources of family offices and various investment groups. Polar Star seeks to provide collaborative longer-term capital that is supportive of management initiatives and aligned with the philosophies of longer-term investors. We tailor our level of involvement in our investments to that required, and are equally comfortable acting as a strategic sounding board or by offering additional resources to the management team. Polar Star has cultivated significant institutional knowledge of several sectors, and has experience in a broad range of industries. Recently, Polar Star Capital Partners acquired a controlling interest in Meridian Restaurants Unlimited, a 126 restaurant franchisee and the 6th largest in the North American Burger King network. James currently serves on the board of directors.
