Grupo Lagua is a private investment firm based in Guatemala City with the vision of being the best succession or financing option (debt or equity) for small and mid-sized companies (revenues of USD 500 thousand to USD 30 million) in Central America.
Founded and financed by a group of investors and entrepreneurs, our mission is to create excellent teams and companies that provide real impact to our clients, collaborators and communities.
As captains of capital, our commitment is long term as we believe that good strategies take time to flourish.
Grupo Lagua evaluates companies that provide products and services regardless of their industry and target market.
Still, we love meeting companies that meet one or more of the following variables:
​
-
Leader of a niche or market
-
Consistent and established record of earnings> 10% EBITDA margin
-
Positive cash flow history (three-year minimum)
-
High levels of recurring income> 40%
-
Strong local, regional or international presence
-
Fragmented customer base
We believe that excellent companies help the productivity of their collaborators and as a result better communities and conditions for our countries.
