About me

Twenty years in business — a builder, an operator, now a careful buyer.

I've built companies, met payroll, and handed businesses to new owners. That's the lens I bring to every conversation — I know exactly how much trust a sale takes.

"I buy and grow solid small businesses in Poland & Germany — and I treat each one the way I'd want my own life's work to be treated."

I'm Alex Tsishuk. For more than two decades I've built, financed and run real businesses — the kind with payroll to meet, customers to keep and margins to defend. I've also been on the other side of a sale: I've handed companies I built to new owners, and I know exactly how much trust that takes.

That experience is why I do this differently. I'm not a fund running a portfolio on a spreadsheet. I'm one buyer, using my own capital, looking for one good business at a time to own and grow for the long term — especially where a founder is retiring and there's no one in the family to take over.

Cross-border trade

Import–export for an industrial-lighting manufacturer. Learned how real margins are made and lost.

2004 – 2009

Private-market fund

Co-managed an equities & derivatives portfolio. Learned how capital is priced and risk is underwritten.

2012 – 2022

FMCG scale-up

2022 – 2025

E-commerce

How I work

Four principles guide every deal — and every day after it:

My own capital, first People stay Open numbers Simple, patient growth

If you've spent a lifetime building something and want it to be in careful hands, I'd be glad to talk — quietly, and with no obligation.
