We are looking for one great American business to own and operate for the long term

Cooper River Partners is two people, not a fund building a portfolio. We intend to buy one company, work in it ourselves, and still be running it many years from now. If you are thinking about what happens next for the business you built, we would like to talk.

Every message goes to Colman and Peter, and nowhere else.

Confidentiality

A private conversation, without a process around it.
