About FMCP
Built to Own and Operate Metal Fabrication Businesses
Futech Maritime Capital Partners LLC is an acquisition and operating platform focused on metal fabrication and industrial manufacturing. We are not a traditional private equity firm — we are operators who use capital to acquire and build businesses for the long term.
Our Story
From Industry to Ownership
FMCP was founded by professionals with direct experience in industrial manufacturing, Gulf Coast energy markets, and business acquisition. We saw a persistent gap: well-run metal fabrication businesses owned by founders approaching retirement, with no clear succession path and no natural buyer who understood the business well enough to pay a fair price and run it well. We built FMCP to be that buyer. Our name reflects our roots in Gulf Coast maritime and energy markets — the industries that drive demand for the fabrication businesses we acquire. Our focus is clear: acquiring, operating, and growing metal fabrication and industrial manufacturing companies across the U.S.
Metal Fabrication Focus
Our entire platform is built around metal fabrication and industrial manufacturing. We understand the work, the equipment, and the customer relationships that make these businesses run.
Hands-On Operating Approach
We engage directly with operations — connecting customer development, estimating discipline, and production planning to support growth in each business we acquire.
Respect for What Sellers Built
Every business we acquire represents years of a founder's work. We honor that by investing in the business, its people, and its customers.
Clear Terms and Communication
We aim to agree clear terms early and communicate promptly if material diligence findings require adjustments. Final terms remain subject to diligence and definitive agreements.
Our Focus
Metal Fabrication and Industrial Manufacturing
We acquire businesses in the fabricated metals and industrial manufacturing space — companies that cut, form, weld, machine, and assemble metal components and structures for industrial customers. These represent our acquisition targets, not existing capabilities within FMCP.
