1614 Capital acquires small businesses from owners who are ready for their next chapter. We focus on preserving what makes each business unique while building on its foundation for long-term growth.
Get in touchI'm Ashley, founder of 1614 Capital. I spent 15 years in global retail buying and planning before helping build DoorDash's retail vertical to $1B in revenue in less than 4 years. In December 2025, I left salaried employment to pursue what I've always been drawn to: owning and growing something meaningful.
I'm not a private equity firm. I'm not looking to flip. I'm an operator looking for profitable businesses with strong foundations, loyal customers, and an owner ready to hand off to someone who will bring that same level of care to what they've built.
Based in Central Texas. Focused on Retail and eCommerce businesses across Central Texas and beyond.
If you're a business owner exploring your options, or a broker with a listing that fits, I'd love to connect. No pressure, no timeline. Just an honest conversation.
