Jackson Investment Group

Jackson Investment Group

Jackson Investment Group launched in 1992 under Marshall T. Jackson, establishing its base in Alpharetta, Georgia. The firm operates as a long-term holding company rather than a fund manager, targeting controlling stakes in established industrial businesses without a predetermined exit timeline. The strategy centers on acquiring North American manufacturing and industrial services companies with $10M to $50M in annual revenue. Sectors shift toward precision machining, industrial automation, and specialty fabrication. The firm deploys permanent capital — no limited partners, no fund lifecycles — and holds portfolio companies indefinitely. Known operating companies include Jackson Machinery & Manufacturing and Precision Tool & Die, both acquired through direct, all-equity transactions. The team remains deliberately lean, with Marshall Jackson directly involved in all acquisitions. The firm relocated to Alpharetta but maintains no additional offices. In 2023, Jackson Investment Group completed the acquisition of a precision components manufacturer in the Southeast, consistent with its historical one-deal-per-year deployment pace. The firm's permanent-capital architecture eliminates the pressure to sell. Without fund lifecycles or redemption requests, Jackson Investment Group can reinvest earnings into shop-floor automation, workforce training, and multi-year capacity expansions — operational decisions that a three-to-five-year hold period would penalize.
