Speyside Equity Advisers, a private equity firm in Ann Arbor, has announced it has completed the acquisition of GSC Technologies Inc. in Quebec, a leading manufacturer of plastic goods in North America.
The transaction will allow Speyside’s continued investment in GSC Technologies as it fuels the company’s next growth phase. Terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
“We are very excited about the GSC Technologies acquisition,” says Eric Wiklendt, managing director at Speyside. “GSC Technologies has a great growth and value-creation plan that we look forward to facilitating.”
Speyside invests in middle-market, buyout transactions in the manufacturing and value-added distribution sectors.
“My team and I look forward to working with the Speyside team to execute our strategic plan,” says Dave Barrow, CEO of GSC Technologies. “Speyside has a strong operational background that clearly differentiates it from other investment groups.”

“GSC Technologies is our second closed deal in Speyside Equity Fund II,” says Nick Lardo, managing director of Speyside. “We are gaining strong momentum in the fund based on increased staff, assets under management, and deal activity. We see 2025 as a year full of great opportunity.”
