Our History

Rock Hill Capital was founded in 2007, and launched Fund I that year. Rock Hill closed Fund II in 2013 and Fund III in 2016. 

At Rock Hill, you will find a business built on timeless principles to which we fiercely adhere. They are focused on integrity and fairness. Hard work and a firm handshake. When Rock Hill invests in a company, we invest as much time, passion, expertise and experience as we do money. This is more than just building a business or performing a quick turnaround. This is about finding potential and bringing dreams to fruition.
