A Different Kind of Partner for the Generator Business You’ve Built.
Blue Foundry Partners is acquiring one residential standby generator service business in Texas, Louisiana, Alabama, Mississippi, Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, or Virginia. We’re not a private equity fund. We’re not flipping the business in five years. We’re an experienced operator-buyer looking for a company to partner with, strengthen, and hold permanently.
Fully confidential. NDA available on request.
What We’re Looking For
When we partner with a business, the owner, the managers, and the people who've made it great remain at the center of everything. Our role is to bring what they need to go further — capital, processes, and operational resources — so they can serve their customers, employees, and communities at a level that wasn't possible before.
We bring structure without bureaucracy. We implement tools and systems that remove friction and free your team to focus on what they do best. We've done this before, and we know that continuity of leadership is the difference between a business that thrives after a transition and one that doesn't.
What we
look for:
Home services businesses like electrical, HVAC, generators, solar, and battery storage
Staffing and Recruiting firms
$500K or more in EBITDA, seller's discretionary earnings, or cash flow
Predictable, recurring, or repeat revenue
Healthy margins and a team that takes pride in their work
If your business fits this profile and you're thinking about what comes next, we'd like to hear from you.
JD Ridgeway - Founder of Blue Foundry Partners
About
The Operator Behind
Blue Foundry Partners
Blue Foundry Partners was founded by JD Ridgeway, an operator and dealmaker with an uncommon combination of M&A experience and hands-on operational depth.
On the deal side, JD has closed more than 20 transactions totaling over $600M in enterprise value — giving him the financial rigor to structure acquisitions that work for everyone at the table.
On the operating side, he has led and scaled businesses ranging from early-stage startups to organizations generating over $1B in revenue, with a particular focus on building operational efficiency through technology, AI, and software automation.
At Blue Foundry Partners, those two capabilities come together in a deliberate way. JD is directly involved in each business — implementing systems, centralizing back-office functions, and identifying where smart processes can unlock capacity. But he's not there to run the day-to-day. The owner and management team do that. His role is to make them more effective at it.
JD founded Blue Foundry Partners on a straightforward belief: the best outcomes for sellers, employees, and customers come from a buyer who strengthens what's already working.
