APA Medical Equipment
The Deal
- Bought By
- Tommy Shelton and Dillon Friedman
- Year
- Not published by any primary source
- Two backers carry it and neither dates the purchase: one pairs the searcher with the company by name, the other lists the company with its town. The company's own site is a live storefront for lift chairs, wheelchairs and mobility aids, with no history page and no mention of who owns it. No Form D is filed under the searcher's surname. A further backer's card files the company under a year-invested field, 2023, which is that backer's label. The backer's own portfolio page says it invested in 2023, which is the backer's date.

These sources name who runs the business and when the firm invested, rather than saying in a sentence that the searchers bought it. One backer's modal says Tommy is the chief executive of APA Medical Equipment. The other's grid lists the company and its town and names nobody. The company's own site names no officer. Nothing says he bought it.
