Whitebridge Capital Partners Seeking Commercial and Industrial Manufacturing Businesses

Partners Have Successfully Revitalized Companies in a Wide Range of Industries

CHICAGO, Feb. 4, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Whitebridge Capital Partners, LLC, is seeking commercial and industrial manufacturing businesses in which to invest and reinvigorate.  The company was recently formed by partners with decades of successful operating experience in a wide range of industries, including metal stamping, metal fabrication, aluminum extrusion, die casting, precision machining, tool & die, injection molding, thermoforming, industrial coatings, transportation, construction, aviation, maritime, furniture, lighting, and consumer products.

Mark Heinze, Todd DiBenedetto and Linda Budz are founding partners in the business.

"The opportunity in front of us is to help revitalize and create strong US-based businesses that can capitalize on the anticipated focus on investing in American manufacturing," said Heinze. "We believe there is an opportunity to bring back many businesses that have been struggling over the years with the emphasis on out-sourcing to offshore businesses. That trend is now reversing and our team is well-positioned to help companies capitalize on that opportunity."

Whitebridge Capital provides both capital and management expertise to distressed companies. "Our focus is on working with company principals, including many family-owned manufacturing firms, to add marketing, operations and financial expertise in order to create strong, growing companies," said DiBenedetto.

Prior to forming Whitebridge, DiBenedetto was a co-founder and president of Big Shoulders Capital where he led numerous successful turnarounds for more than 15 years. Recently, he and Heinze purchased a precision die-casting and machining business in Kentucky and are now successfully operating the business under new ownership.  

Heinze also specializes in organization restructuring, vendor consolidation, sales program re-design, recapitalization, cash management and manufacturing process improvements. He has worked as a business owner, operator, consultant and investor to successfully guide companies through dramatic business transformation. 

Budz has more than 20 years of legal and financial experience. She has spent nearly 10 years in business development roles, sourcing opportunities through insolvency proceedings involving commercial and industrial manufacturing companies.

Whitebridge Capital is an Illinois corporation based in Chicago. The company will be represented at the 2025 Turnaround Management Association Distressed Investing Conference, February 11-14 in Las Vegas.
