San Francisco-based JH Partners, LLC, pursues results-focused investment strategies in the consumer-branding sphere. Focused on organizations with proven track records and significant growth potential, JH Partners has taken equity stakes in companies such as The Gap, Alex and Ani, and the skin care brand Kate Somerville. The firm took an initial investment position in the latter firm, which combines advanced clinical technologies with a strong celebrity following, in 2007. Featuring natural botanicals, the firm’s Active Balance Technology products are available at luxury spas and upscale retailers, as well as online and through direct-response television. The flagship Kate Somerville clinic has a high-profile West Hollywood location on Melrose Place. In April 2015, the worldwide cosmetics leader Unilever announced its purchase of Kate Somerville, with a key reason being the company’s success in making inroads in the dynamically expanding Asian market. A Unilever executive described the firm’s breakthrough products as complementing its existing portfolio of brands with high name recognition.
