Investment Philosophy Focused on Quality

Nick and Zach emphasize a deep commitment to quality within their investment philosophy, extending beyond merely selecting high-quality businesses. They seek out companies that not only excel in their respective fields but also prioritize customer relationships by sharing excess profits. This approach leads them to favor business models that embody scale economies shared, where cost savings are passed on to consumers, creating reciprocal loyalty. The structure of their partnership mirrors this quality focus, designed to ensure that returns primarily benefit partners rather than just the fund managers.
