CSC Generation Snapshot
Who We Are:
CSC Generation was founded in 2017 to create an operating platform that acquires and transforms retailers into high performing, digital first, consumer-centric businesses. Since then, we have grown through a combination of acquisitions and organic growth. With offices in major cities including Chicago, Austin, Toronto, Seattle, Salt Lake City, LA, and NW Indiana, we have over 3,000 employees at the portfolio level. Our portfolio companies generate consolidated revenues of over $1 billion annually.
What We Do:
We acquire retail brands in transition and rebuild them on Genesis, our agent‑orchestrated operating system that lifts EBITDA 800 bps in the first 12 months after acquisition.
How We Began:
Our founder and CEO, Justin Yoshimura, has an amazing career story.
After being told that nobody would ever hire him, Justin dropped out of high school to start his first company, which was acquired after generating $10 million in revenue just three years later!
Prior to founding CSC Generation in 2017, Justin worked at 500friends, Merkle, and Wunderkind where he saw 5 to 10% of its customers file for bankruptcy every year due to bad management, culture, tech, lack of scale and Amazon. In that, he saw the unsexy opportunity to create an operating platform (tech, people, process, and scale) that would save these companies.
Justin believes the keys to CSC Generation’s success are its people, culture, and drive for innovation.
