Our Approach

At TerraFive we are both investors and operators. We take a buy and build approach and every business we partner with involves a significant financial investment from us alongside the TerraFive team taking a hands-on role to accelerate growth, transformation and acquisitions. One of the main benefits of taking a highly concentrated approach is we can fully dedicate our time and experience to each business and not spread ourselves too thinly across a large portfolio.

Our investment framework is based on the 5 P’s which we have developed over the last decade:

1. Purpose-Driven – a clear purpose to serve customers with products and solutions that are better for both people and the planet

2. Profitable Growth – underlying strong unit economics with clear growth potential that can be accelerated through our proven playbooks

3. People Centric – a strong culture with a management team we can partner with to develop the next phase of the business

4. Planet Ready – a scalable and sustainable business model that can be expanded internationally

5. Platform Potential – a strong core business that can act as a platform for a buy-and-build approach
