CHICAGO – Edgewater Growth Capital Partners II LP is pleased to announce the recently completed acquisition of Horsburgh & Scott Co. (H&S), which is headquartered in Cleveland. H&S is a leading manufacturer of large-diameter industrial gears and custom mechanical gear drives.

The company also provides specialized services including heat treatment, technical solutions and on-site customer service. The acquisition was completed in partnership with Edgewater affiliate Bolder Capital LLC and the management team at H&S.
