Fulcrum Capital Partners Completes Sale of Kore Outdoor Inc. to Ironbridge Equity Partners
Fulcrum Capital Partners (“Fulcrum”) is pleased to announce the sale of Kore Outdoor Inc. (“Kore”) to Ironbridge Equity Partners (“Ironbridge”).
Kore, based in Montreal, Quebec, is the leading manufacturer and distributer of paintballs and paintball-related products globally. Through its manufacturing facilities in Montreal and Fort Wayne, and a network of distribution centers across North America and Europe, the Company offers its comprehensive portfolio of products to game fields, specialty retailers, e-commerce, and mass retailers in over 70 countries.
In 2015, Fulcrum invested in Kore’s predecessor, GI Group, or what was later better known as GI Sportz.

We would like to thank Kore’s team for their commitment to excellence during our partnership with them.”
