TCG Capital Management, LP.

About The Fund

TCG Capital Management, LP (also known as The Chernin Group) is a private equity firm that specializes in investing in and assisting the growth of businesses across various consumer sectors. They have a particular expertise in equity investments, focusing on early stage, expansion, later stage, and management buyout/leveraged buyout opportunities. TCG's investment thesis is based on identifying companies that are poised to define culture and are shaping consumer behavior. Initially, their focus and conviction were primarily in the media industry, where they anticipated technology would disrupt and create new opportunities for businesses with strong brand identities, loyal fan bases, and robust business models. They have a penchant for direct-to-consumer, subscription-based models, and founders who have developed strong brands and require support in scaling. Over time, TCG has found that their thesis is applicable to a variety of consumer industries, including commerce, health and wellness, gaming, consumer finance, and more. The firm applies the same meticulous approach to partnering with enterprises across all sectors. TCG actively supports their portfolio companies—of which there are more than 70—by providing advice, assisting in the recruitment of talented leaders, and facilitating access to capital. They relish the opportunity to help founders realize their visions and are eager to continue their involvement with innovative and impactful companies in the consumer landscape. The firm is headquartered in Playa Vista, California, and manages over $700 million in assets. Under their current structure as an investment firm, TCG operates with teams in Los Angeles, San Francisco, and New York, consistently striving to maintain the culture of curiosity, creativity, care, and levity that they have cultivated over the years.
