Fund VII Continues Greenbriar’s Focused Strategy of Investing in Critical Industrial Growth Sectors
Greenbriar Equity Group, L.P. (“Greenbriar”) today announced the final closing of Greenbriar Equity Fund VII, L.P. (“Fund VII”) with total capital commitments of $5.4 billion, representing Greenbriar’s largest fund to date. The fundraise was significantly oversubscribed, exceeding its $4.25 billion target, and completed on an accelerated basis, following a first close in December 2025. Fund VII received strong support from both Greenbriar’s existing investors, who significantly increased their aggregate commitments from Greenbriar’s prior fund, as well as a large and diverse group of new institutional investors. Fund VII continues Greenbriar’s track record of growing its investor base by both investor type and geography, with the majority of new investors coming from outside the United States.
Fund VII will maintain Greenbriar’s same long-term strategy of investing in targeted sub-sectors with extended growth themes where its specialization and network can create meaningful advantage. Greenbriar’s portfolio of supply chain, aviation and defense, business services and advanced manufacturing companies provide critical enabling technologies, services and logistical support across the global industrial economy. Greenbriar’s focused strategy, deep domain expertise and extensive network of industry relationships have enabled its successful long-term track record.
Noah Roy, Greenbriar Managing Partner, said, “Everyone at Greenbriar is incredibly grateful for the broad support that Fund VII received. We’ve had the same focused strategy for more than 25 years and we believe the opportunities in our sub-sectors, and their critical role across the economy, have never been more compelling. Our objectives remain unchanged, to grow our portfolio companies in partnership with their management teams and employees, support the industries in which we operate, and deliver superior long-term returns to our investors. Our cohesive long-tenured team, collaborative culture, and hands-on approach remain cornerstones of our success, and we are looking forward to this next chapter for Greenbriar.”
“We sincerely appreciate the continued support of our long-standing investors, who anchored our Fund VII fundraise, and the strong support of our new partners, whose trust and conviction in Greenbriar were instrumental to its success,” added Johanna Doherty, Managing Director, Investor Relations.
Evercore acted as Greenbriar’s exclusive global placement agent and Kirkland & Ellis, LLP served as fund counsel.
