Noble Venture Partners Acquires LumEfficient Lighting
September 16, 2025–Nashville, Noble Venture Partners today announced the acquisition of LumEfficient Lighting, a Nashville-based manufacturer specializing in hazardous location LED fixtures. The transaction marks an important milestone for both companies as they build toward a shared vision of growth, innovation, and customer-focused service.
Founded in 2016 by Randy Reid, LumEfficient quickly became one of the largest global suppliers of Light Emitting Plasma (LEP) lighting. As LEP technology began to phase out, LumEfficient pivoted to hazardous location LED solutions—serving oil, gas, industrial, and other demanding environments. The company distributes its products through a traditional rep network while also working closely with lighting designers to ensure its products are specified on critical projects.
“LumEfficient has always been about more than fixtures—it’s about trust, innovation, and delivering safety where it matters most,” said Randy Reid, founder of LumEfficient. “I am humbled and honored to transition the company to Noble Venture Partners. Although I wear several hats in this industry, LumEfficient has been my primary revenue source. With this sale, I look forward to dedicating more time to my family while continuing to advocate for the lighting industry—in that order.”
Rene Pollard, President of Noble Venture Partners, added: “LumEfficient’s reputation for excellence and dedication to customer care make it a perfect addition to our portfolio. Together, we will expand opportunities, strengthen our presence in hazardous location markets, and continue building a brighter, more sustainable future for the industries we serve.”
The acquisition underscores Noble Venture Partners’ strategy to invest in innovative lighting companies that deliver both safety and performance in challenging environments. LumEfficient will continue to operate under its current brand name while leveraging Noble Venture Partners’ resources to expand its reach and product offerings.
