Kevin Bibelhausen

Kevin Bibelhausen is the co-founder of Fruition Capital, a private equity-style fund that provides capital and operational support to entrepreneurs acquiring small businesses across the United States. Prior to launching Fruition, Kevin made his own transition to entrepreneurship in 2023 when he used $800,000 in investor funding to acquire Heritage Fabrics, a 25-year-old textile converter serving the home furnishings industry.

Before entrepreneurship, Kevin spent over a decade in corporate healthcare technology, most recently as Deputy Chief Information Officer at a large public health system. However, he always maintained an entrepreneurial spirit, fueled by his background as a classically-trained opera singer.

At Fruition Capital, Kevin and his partners are on a mission to revitalize Main Street economies by backing driven owner-operators, not just optimizing for financial returns. In addition to capital, Fruition provides hands-on operational guidance and a broad support network to help first-time business buyers succeed.

Outside of his work, Kevin remains involved in the arts community and is passionate about empowering his employees at Heritage Fabrics to reach their full potential. He resides in North Carolina with his family.
