Weatherstone Capital Management is a private investment firm that seeks to acquire and grow one great business. We seek to build businesses the right way - where employees are treated with respect and provided opportunities to grow, where sellers know that their legacy will be preserved and protected, and where we collectively build for the long-term. Weatherstone Capital Partners is backed by personal assets of our founder and high-net-worth investors. We serve owners and their company, unlike private equity with a large investor base and complex transaction structure or a competitor with strict terms and performance hurdles. We are motivated by business fundamentals and sustainable growth, not financial engineering or cost cutting.

7-Eleven introduced the world to convenience. And in return, the world made us the #1 convenience retailer. It started with a simple idea – give customers what they want, when and where they want it. That was 1927. And what started on a single ice dock in Dallas, Texas, has since grown to more than 70,000 locations in 18 countries around the globe. The idea may have been simple, but it started a retail revolution.
