Miami and New York City, July 2, 2025 – Omaha Beach Capital, LLC (“OBC”), a North American private equity secondaries firm, has recently invested in Sentry Aerospares through a GP-led continuation vehicle sponsored by Acorn Capital Management.

GP-led secondaries, a growing segment of private equity, provide existing investors in a private equity fund with the option to realize liquidity while providing the sponsor with additional time and capital to continue growing a high-performing asset. Continuation vehicles (CVs) like this one offer new investors access to seasoned businesses with attractive entry points and clear value creation plans.

Sentry Aerospares, headquartered in the UK with locations in the US, is a global distributor of critical aircraft parts, with a particular focus on Aircraft-on-Ground (“AOG”) situations where rapid part replacement is essential to return planes to service. The company’s differentiated model combines a broad inventory, data-driven purchasing, unmatched reliability, and a high-margin exchange program to meet the urgent needs of airlines, cargo operators, and maintenance providers worldwide.

“We are excited to support Acorn and the Sentry management team as they execute the next phase of growth,” said Brian Zaratzian, Co-Founder and Partner at Omaha Beach Capital. “This investment reflects our core approach of partnering with experienced sponsors and management teams to back high-quality businesses at attractive valuations. Sentry’s market leadership, global footprint, and essential role in the aviation aftermarket align well with that strategy.”

OBC was attracted to Sentry’s strong market position in a niche with high barriers to entry, its history of consistent growth, and its critical role in supporting global air travel. The company is well positioned to capitalize on increasing aircraft fleet ages, ongoing supply chain challenges, and consistent demand for reliable AOG parts support.

This marks the first investment from Omaha Beach Partners IV, LP, OBC’s latest fund focused on GP-led secondaries in the lower middle and middle market.
