Mission Intro 1

Impact Beyond Returns


As good stewards, we focus on and we have created strong investment returns for Granite Members. In fact, we have significantly outperformed relevant public market indices and private company benchmarks since the firm’s inception.

At the same time, as good partners, we focus on and we have created outstanding value for the team members employed in and the suppliers who support the companies, for the customers they serve, and for the broader communities that we operate in. Investment returns are necessary but not sufficient for a meaningful mission and an enterprise that is sustainable for 100 years.

We believe in an impact beyond returns.
