Top Consumer Growth Equity Firms

Who are the top consumer growth equity / late stage venture firms? In the sense of being a true value-added partner, having the know-how / experience to really help the target company grow, etc. Asking from the perspective of a company potentially seeking growth equity in the near future.

Came across the following consumer GE funds via search, but wasn't able to find any info on ability / how hands on they are / etc. Thanks!

The about video on their website is fucking awesome

"The obedient always think of themselves as virtuous rather than cowardly" - Robert A. Wilson | "If you don't have any enemies in life you have never stood up for anything" - Winston Churchill | "It's a testament to the sheer belligerence of the profession that people would rather argue about the 'risk-adjusted returns' of using inferior tooth cleaning methods." - kellycriterion
 

Tough for me to evaluate the value-add of any of these since I haven't worked directly with these funds, but here are a few to add to your list:

TCG (The Chernin Group) - Have invested in a lot of content-to-commerce businesses (Food52, Barstool, etc.), and recently started a web3/crypto fund.

Stripes Group - GE/VC fund that invests in both consumer and enterprise software. People I've interacted with (all on the enterprise software side) have all been really sharp.

Summit/TA/General Atlantic/Insight - Classic growth equity firms that invest mostly in enterprise software, but still do a good bit of consumer investing. I've only had interactions with the enterprise software folks at these funds as well.
