The DAK Group, an investment bank specializing in middle-market mergers and acquisitions, said Oct. 6 that Rosco Vision, based in Queens, has partnered with Graycliff Partners, a New York-based investment firm.
Rosco is an innovator in vision safety solutions for school buses and other commercial applications. Financial terms were not disclosed.
The DAK Group served as the exclusive financial adviser to Rosco, leading a process that generated substantial interest from both strategic and financial investors before Graycliff Partners emerged as the partner to support and accelerate Rosco’s continued growth.
“Rosco is a world-class company. The investment from Graycliff Partners affords Rosco the opportunity to leverage its existing platform and accelerate the growth of its business,” stated Alan Scharfstein, CEO of The DAK Group. He led the transaction along with Derek Zacarias, director, Yanni Leakas, associate and Shadi Yakoup, senior analyst.
The companies believe this transaction builds on Rosco’s leadership as an innovator in vision safety solutions for school buses, work trucks, military vehicles, transit buses, and other commercial applications.
Rosco’s product portfolio includes traditional mirrors, e-mirrors, backup, side-view, and surround-view cameras, digital monitors, sensor technologies, and advanced driver assistance systems. These are all designed to enhance driver visibility and improve road safety. Rosco serves hundreds of original equipment makers and aftermarket customers across North America.
“We are thrilled to partner with Graycliff,” said Ben Englander, CEO of Rosco. “As a family-owned business, it was important for us to find an investor who would honor our legacy
while helping us accelerate growth. Graycliff’s philosophy aligns perfectly with our vision—providing strategic guidance and resources while respecting the strength of our team to lead the company’s day-to-day operations.”
