Fenimore is dedicated to identifying select, quality businesses that we believe can grow and produce attractive returns over time. This means conducting extensive due diligence on any business in which we may invest. Our fieldwork includes meeting with management, customers, and suppliers as well as on-site visits.

We manage risk (which we define as permanent loss of capital — not market volatility) by adhering to our enduring process and only investing in what we deem to be quality businesses. We believe in-person research is still the best way to ensure we are investing in quality businesses that meet Fenimore’s four core criteria.
