HOUSTON–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Milestone Capital, Inc., in collaboration with D2 Equity Capital, LLC, has acquired a majority interest in a newly formed entity specifically created to acquire the assets of MCIP Industrial Enterprises Corp. This acquisition includes MCIP’s pipe coating plants in Pearland, Texas and will help position MCIP to be one of the fastest growing pipe coating companies in the Gulf Coast.
“We are excited to expand our portfolio of companies by bringing MCIP into the fold,” said Kelly Williams, Managing Director of Milestone Capital. “MCIP has a reputation of quality of work and exceptional customer service, and we hope to build upon those foundations to make MCIP the ‘go to’ pipe coating facility in the Gulf Coast region.”
Jeff Donaldson, a Managing Director of Milestone Capital, will serve as President and interim CEO of MCIP during the transition. “Working with the Mosqueda family to continue to build upon the legacy that Benjamin Mosqueda created with MCIP is very exciting,” said Donaldson. “This company is poised to be a leader in the pipe coating industry, and we believe the coating experience that the Mosqueda family brings, together with Milestone’s history of professional management and strategic guidance, will be an excellent combination.”
