has been acquired by
Cascadia Capital, an independent investment bank serving middle-market organizations, today announced that it acted as the exclusive financial advisor to Diamond Art Club, a leading digitally native brand of premium diamond art kits, on its acquisition by Sound Growth Partners.
Headquartered in Miami, Florida, Diamond Art Club has established itself as a leading brand in the rapidly growing diamond painting and DIY creative category. The Company offers premium diamond art kits featuring high-quality materials and original designs created by artists and has built a highly engaged community of hobbyists and a loyal base of repeat customers.
Diamond painting combines elements of cross stitch and paint-by-numbers to create an accessible, screen-free creative experience. As consumer interest in creative hobbies continues to grow, Diamond Art Club has differentiated itself through the quality of its products and designs, strong brand affinity, and an engaged customer community.
Cascadia worked closely with Diamond Art Club’s founders and management team to position the Company for its next phase of growth and identify a partner that could build on the brand’s strong foundation. The partnership with Sound Growth Partners, a growth-oriented private equity firm, provides Diamond Art Club’s founders with liquidity while allowing them to retain upside as the Company pursues opportunities to accelerate growth and expand into new markets and categories.
“I thought I knew where this process was going. I was wrong at least five times,” said Alexandre Perrier, Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Diamond Art Club. “Cascadia rolled with every unexpected turn and got us to an amazing outcome. Now the fun part begins, the next phase of growth with Sound Growth Partners by our side.”
“We couldn’t be more thrilled with the outcome for Alex and the entire Diamond Art Club team, particularly with a world-class partner in Sound Growth Partners,” said Billy Susman, Managing Director at Cascadia Capital. “Diamond Art Club has built an exceptional brand with a deeply loyal customer base and a leadership position in an exciting category. We look forward to seeing what the team accomplishes in its next chapter of growth.”
The transaction further demonstrates Cascadia’s experience advising founder-owned and digitally native consumer businesses, particularly those with differentiated brands, loyal customer communities, and compelling opportunities for continued growth.
