Your Legacy. MY Stewardship.
I will grow what you've built with respect and care
Who We Are
Berm Ventures: Committed to Local Business Growth
Berm Ventures is a small business acquisition firm founded by Namue Kata focused on acquiring a single Puget Sound business to operate over the long-term. Namue isn’t not one of these faceless private equity funds looking to buy and flip a business for quick profit. His approach focuses on buying a business where he can commit to supporting the existing team, customers, and community. He wants to grow and add value, but in a way that respects what already works and in partnership with the people who know the business best.
Mission
Vision
To build, operate and grow a strong local business, recognized for our commitment to legacy, relationships, and our impact on the community
Values
I believe in integrity, people, and financial stewardship, ensuring decisions enrich the lives of customers and employees
Why Work with Us?
We’re here to create lasting value, not chase fast profits.
Respect for What You've Built
Your business has been successful for a reason and I'm here to honor that with a smooth transition to build on top of what you've done so well.
People First
At the end of the day, business is about people. From building trust with a seller early on to ensuring your people are well taken care of after the sale, I know success comes from relationships.
Operational Know How
I am seeking to buy to operate and bring years of operational experience to strengthen the business - working with the experts already in place to learn and grow the business.
Long-term Growth
Buying a business is not about quick exits for a profit, it's about respecting legacy and serving the community for the long-term through sustainable growth.
