Align Capital Partners has made an investment in the majority recapitalization of Custom Veterinary Services, a custom formulator and contract manufacturer exclusively focused on the animal health industry.  The company’s FDA-registered facility in Miami, Florida produces nutritional supplements, dermatological, and grooming products for companion animals.

“CVS’ commitment is to produce the highest quality products and service for our customers,” said Ruben Martinez, President of CVS.  “Our customers are growing rapidly, and we sought a partner to help us expand and further meet our customers’ needs.  ACP and Worth Turner have a successful track record of helping companies like CVS grow and share our vision of being the best contract manufacturing partner for the animal health industry.” 

“We’re enthusiastic about the combined partnership of Ruben, Worth, and ACP,” said ACP managing partner Rob Langley.  “CVS is at an inflection point where additional capital and growth-related expertise will help drive the leadership team’s goal of becoming the best provider in the sector.  We are thrilled to partner with the team and Worth in pursuit of this goal.” 

Operating partner Bill White, principal Jack Parks, vice president Kurt Smentek, and associate Aaron Lewis worked alongside Mr. Langley on the transaction.  CVS was advised on the transaction by BellMark Partners.
