GV Investments (GVI) is a private investment company organized to acquire and manage lower to middle-market companies involving a transition of both ownership and lead operating management, such as a retiring owner/president. GVI was established by Steven Chilinski who has managed several international, middle-market companies consistently enhancing their revenue and operating performance. Mr. Chilinski has operated businesses in many diverse industries primarily for premier private equity firms such as Bain Capital, American Securities Capital and Parthenon Capital.
