ABOUT US

Creed Investments was founded by Tom Wagner in 2023 as part of his search to acquire a business to own and operate. Tom is leading a dedicated search fund on a mission to acquire and nurture thriving businesses within the Birmingham community.

What is a Search Fund?

For those unfamiliar with the concept, a search fund is an innovative way for entrepreneurs to acquire an established business and take on a leadership role. The primary goal of the search fund is not just about turning a profit; it's about preserving and building upon the legacy of businesses that have been woven into the fabric of our community.

Why Local Business Legacy Matters to Me?

As a Birmingham resident and business enthusiast, Tom strongly believes that the success of our community is intertwined with the well-being of its businesses. These establishments often represent the dreams and hard work of their founders, and Tom is committed to carrying their vision forward with the utmost respect and care.

My Approach:

1. Preservation of Values: I understand that each business has its unique values and culture. I aim to preserve and foster these aspects while infusing fresh ideas and innovation to enhance their growth prospects.

2. Employee Empowerment: A strong workforce is the backbone of any successful business. I am dedicated to empowering employees and providing a conducive work environment that fosters growth and job satisfaction.

3. Customer-Centric Focus: Customers are at the heart of every business. My strategies revolve around providing exceptional service and building long-term relationships with customers.

4. Community Engagement: I believe in giving back to the community that has supported these businesses throughout the years. By actively engaging with the community, I aim to create a positive impact beyond the walls of the business I acquire.

5. Long-Term Vision: My goal is not short-term gains, but rather long-term sustainability and growth. I am committed to strategic planning and continuous improvement to ensure the businesses thrive in an ever-evolving market.
