BroadPeak Investment Group

Last mile delivery is becoming one of the most expensive problems in commerce — and one of the biggest opportunities. Here's a number that surprises most people: last-mile delivery now accounts for 53% of total delivery costs in logistics — over half the entire shipping process, concentrated in the final few miles to someone's door. It's the costliest, most complex leg of the journey, and it's only growing more central to how businesses compete. The stakes for getting it wrong have never been higher. If a delivery fails to meet expectations, 84% of consumers are unlikely to buy from that brand again. Delivery isn't just a backend logistics function anymore — for many customers, it is the brand experience. Businesses are responding accordingly. A recent survey of 600 managers and supervisors found 76% are already using outsourced last-mile delivery services — clear evidence that partnering with specialists is often faster, cheaper, and more reliable than building and owning that infrastructure in-house. At BroadPeak Investment Group, that's exactly the kind of opportunity we look for — businesses adding value to the parts of the supply chain that don't make headlines but are critical to the customer experience. #LastMileDelivery #Logistics #Investing #SupplyChain #BroadpeakInvestmentGroup

In 1985, technology made up less than 10% of the S&P 500 market cap. The personal computer was largely viewed as an administrative tool—an expensive desktop typewriter. Four decades later, that foundation has completely reshaped the global economy—and our own journey mirroring those exact shifts: - 1985–2000 (The PC Era): Desktop computing digitized individual workflows. We saw this potential early, digitizing our retail flower shops and building our own POS Services’s company to streamline florist operations. - 2000–2020 (The Internet & Mobile Era): Networks connected systems globally. In 1999, we launched Edible Arrangements® with a single storefront in Connecticut paired with an e-commerce website. That web-first strategy was a game-changer, proving how digital reach could accelerate a localized business into an international franchise network. - 2020–Present (The Cloud & AI Era): Cloud infrastructure scaled operations across every layer. Today, we are harnessing AI-enhanced technologies—from retailAI to franchiseAI—to launch and scale the next generation of global brands. Every major tech cycle brings short-term noise and market adjustments—the early PC adoption hurdles and the dot-com shift were both clear examples. But the underlying trajectory never changes. Artificial intelligence serves as the connective tissue across all these eras. Instead of operating in a standalone software silo, AI connects hardware, logistics, customer experience, and physical operations into a single continuous loop. A clear example of this convergence is highlighted in Raymond James’ recent institutional analysis of SpaceX. Raymond James frames SpaceX not simply as a launch company, but as a multi-trillion-dollar industrial platform—where rapid reusability, Starlink’s orbital connectivity, and AI-driven edge compute align to completely redefine space and communications infrastructure. At BroadPeak Investment Group (BIG), we focus on these compounding shifts. Short-term market cycles come and go, but the fusion of intelligent software and physical infrastructure will drive the next multi-decade cycle of economic growth—especially across franchising, multi-unit retail, real estate, and global supply chains. As an operator-led firm, we innovate alongside our franchise partners and portfolio companies. Through anchor brands like Edible Arrangements, we see firsthand the tremendous opportunity AI affords small-to-medium business owners: automating backend complexity so operators can focus on what truly matters—customer relationships and local market growth. How is your leadership team approaching the integration of AI into physical systems and long-term operations? #BroadPeak #FranchiseGrowth #EdibleArrangements #SpaceX #RaymondJames #AIInBusiness #Franchising #PrivateEquity #VentureCapital #SupplyChain #EdibleBrands

One of Tariq Farid's favorite quotes comes from Steve Jobs: "Everything around you that you call life was made up by people that were no smarter than you and you can change it, you can influence it, you can build your own things that other people can use." It's a reminder we return to often at BroadPeak Investment Group. The systems, the markets, the way things have "always been done" — none of it is fixed. People built it. Which means there's always room to build something better. That belief shapes how we approach our work: with curiosity, conviction, and the confidence to think differently. #Investing #Leadership #BroadpeakInvestmentGroup

Jim Collins put it best: great companies aren't built by figuring out where to go first — they're built by getting the right people on the bus, in the right seats, and only then deciding on direction. At BroadPeak Investment Group, that principle is guiding our next chapter. We're expanding — both our team and our investment capabilities — but doing it deliberately. Every new hire isn't just filling a seat; they're someone we believe will push this company forward with the same discipline, integrity, and long-term thinking that has defined us from day one. As we broaden our reach into new investment opportunities, we're holding to that same philosophy: the right people, aligned around the right values, will always outperform the right strategy alone. We're excited about who's joining us, energized about where this takes us, and grateful to the clients and partners whose trust makes this growth possible. #Growth #Leadership #TeamBuilding #GoodToGreat #BroadpeakInvestmentGroup
