Ownership

Dutton Group is owned by its founders, Gavin Fernandez and George Nakas, alongside funds managed and advised by CHAMP Private Equity.

With an investment history dating back to 1987, CHAMP’s primary investment objective is to achieve long-term capital appreciation in mid-market businesses located in Australia and New Zealand.

CHAMP acquired its interest in Dutton in early 2017, and since then has successfully partnered with the founders and management to grow the business both domestically and internationally.
