Stone Pond Investing

We invest in Australian field service businesses.

Stone Pond partners with small specialist businesses for the long term.

About us

We invest in businesses whose teams make recurring visits to keep their customers’ sites and equipment safe, working, clean or compliant.

That ranges from cooling tower water treatment and backflow testing to gas safety checks, height safety anchor testing and car stacker maintenance.

We work alongside the people who run them to help them grow.
