Atlanta, GA (August 22, 2014) – MSouth Equity Partners, an Atlanta-based private equity firm, announced the sale of Capstone Logistics, LLC, a leading provider of outsourced supply chain solutions at nationwide distribution centers catering to the grocery, foodservice, retail and automotive industries.

Capstone was formed in 2011 through the merger of two industry-leading players, LMS Intellibound, a portfolio company of MSouth, and Progressive Logistics Services, a portfolio company of H.I.G.

"We are very pleased with the Capstone transaction and the return it generated for our investors," said Mike Long, an MSouth Partner. "Backing a strong management team, led by Capstone's outstanding CEO and CFO, Steve Taylor and Bill Harper, was critical to the company's industry-leading financial results and significant value creation that we experienced during our ownership. We had a terrific partnership with H.I.G. and are very proud of what we were able to accomplish together with the management team."
