Big Shoulders Capital
Our Big Shoulders Capital Review
Big Shoulders Capital is a Northbrook, IL-based family office that provides debt and equity capital to lower middle-market manufacturing and heavy equipment companies across the United States. Because it deploys its own funds rather than outside investors' capital, it operates without fixed timelines — a meaningful distinction for companies navigating turnarounds or distressed situations. Financing ranges from $1 million to $15 million and includes senior secured loans, bridge loans, acquisition financing, bankruptcy DIP financing, sale-leasebacks, and note purchases, alongside lines of credit and term loans. The firm appears well suited for manufacturers with stressed balance sheets, low or negative EBITDA, or complex capital needs that conventional lenders would likely decline. Minimum requirements include a 650 credit score, $100,000 in monthly revenue, and at least one year in business.
