Vigor sale to investment firm
finalized, new CEO named
Global investment firm The Car-
lyle Group and private equity
firm Stellex Capital Manage-
ment announced Oct. 14 that
they have closed on their acqui-
sition of Vigor Industrial LLC
and MHI Holdings LLC. They
appointed Jim Marcotuli as CEO
of the newly created company,
which has been named Titan Ac-
quisition Holdings.
Frank Foti, Vigor’s founding
CEO, stepped out of that role, but
will remain an investor in the
new parent company and serve
as its vice chairman of the Board
of Directors.
Vigor builds and repairs ships
and performs complex fabrica-
tion projects for several indus-
tries. The company employs
2,300 people and operates eight
dry docks across the Pacific
Northwest and Alaska. It has a
large union workforce at the
Portland Shipyard on Swan Is-
land, with approximately 750
workers currently employed
there. The shipyard’s workforce
fluctuates, and can at times top
1,000 workers. Another 405
union workers are employed at
Vigor Works (formerly Oregon
Iron Works) at facilities in
Clackamas, Oregon, and Van-
couver, Wash.
In Puget Sound, the union
workforce is around 250 to 300
at Washington Marine Repair
Seattle, Vigor Marine Seattle,
and Vigor Shipyard Seattle.
The shipyard workers are rep-
resented by 10 unions affiliated
with the Metal Trades Council of
Portland and Vicinity, and the
Puget Sound Metal Trades
Council. They are in the middle
of a contract that expires Nov.
30, 2021.
MHI Holdings is a non-union
ship repair and maintenance
company in Norfolk, Virginia,
and is owned by Stellex. It has
about 800 employees.
For the past 30 years, Marco-
tuli has served in a number of ex-
ecutive and operating roles with
Carlyle portfolio companies and
in industries spanning defense,
aerospace, transportation, and
automotive. Most recently he
served as the interim chairman
and CEO of Remington Outdoor
Company and prior to that
served as CEO of North Ameri-
can Bus Industries (NABI).
At press time, it was not clear
whether the headquarters will re-
main in Portland.
