thos’ investment conviction is grounded in meticulous
analysis, creative insight and practical solutions accumulated
over the months prior to concluding a transaction.
Most importantly, experience has taught us that the pace of
performance is fast-tracked when we have constructive collaboration
with executive teams during this pre-deal phase.
Accordingly, Ethos - together with AutoZone’s management - tested
strategic concepts and initiated plans to accelerate business growth
long before we announced our investment into the business - South
Africa’s largest privately-owned aftermarket auto parts retailer and
wholesaler.
Why are we so passionate about disciplined pre-deal analysis?
Because our role is to anticipate and influence the field of play from
the onset.
We achieve this by collectively crafting a high-performance playbook
focusing on execution agility, leadership capacity, business scalability,
sustainability and growth. This thoughtful, creative and pre-emptive
game plan is our differentiator and a principal reason why business
managers choose Ethos when they aspire to lift their game.
After all, we play to win.
