Chicago Fire Soccer Club

From 2007 to 2019, Andell owned Major League Soccer's Chicago Fire Soccer Club, purchasing the Club from AEG in 2007 for $35 million.

The club was consistently recognized for its deep community engagement, including being awarded ESPN's 2019 Sports Humanitarian Team of the Year Award, the 2017 Corporate Citizen of the Year Award by the Executives' Club of Chicago, the 2016 Beyond Sport Team of the Year, winning over other finalists FC Barcelona, Arsenal FC, the San Francisco Giants, and the Detroit Pistons, and the 2015 Robert Wood Johnson Sport Team of the Year. [10] [11] [12]

Andell’s Chairman, Andrew Hauptman, led a complex and successful multi-year effort to move the team to downtown Chicago and Soldier Field. [13] [14] In September 2019, after securing the relocation of the team downtown, Hauptman sold the Fire to Joe Mansueto, founder of Morningstar, Inc. [8]

Andell has invested alongside Altas in a number of businesses that have been successfully exited, including NSC Minerals (sold to Kissner Group); [22] [23] Medforth Global Healthcare Education (sold to Carlyle Group); [24] [25] [26] and Capital Vision Services/MyEyeDr, representing 165 optometry centers serving 1.8 million patients in seven states. [27] [28] [29] MyEyeDr grew to 575 practices in 18 states and was sold to Goldman Sachs for $2.7 billion. [27] Andell has also invested alongside Altas in many of its current investments, including Hub International, a leading insurance broker; [30] University of St. Augustine, a physical and occupational therapist educator; [31] DuBois Chemicals, a specialty chemical provider; [32] and Unified Women’s Healthcare, the largest ob-gyn physician practice management company in the U.S. [33]
