San Diego – March 28, 2014 – Succession Capital Inc., a subsidiary of Lynx Equity Limited, announced today the acquisition of San Diego, California based United Fastener Inc. For over fifty years, United Fastener has been providing its retail and wholesale clients, ranging from general construction and sheet metal contractors to trucking and signage companies, with fasteners and related products.

We look to continue that for another fifty years to come,” commented Succession Capital’s Managing Partner, Nathaniel Broughton.
