Carlson Private Capital Partners has expanded its portfolio with an investment in, Lino Lakes based, Street Smart. Formed in 1999, Street Smart’s genesis was in renting equipment, primarily portable message and arrow boards, to traffic control companies. As the industry has evolved to a heightened focus on safety, and the technology needed to enable it, Street Smart has evolved right along with it. Today, the company is the market leader in providing equipment, service and technology to these Smart Work Zones as the road construction industry adapts to a new world of greater technology, data and safety. Street Smart is another example of a great family-owned business with tremendous opportunities ahead that we think our capital is uniquely positioned to support. See Our Portfolio for more information on this investment.
