Thinking of selling your business?
We make the process of selling a business seem simple. We will arrange a suitable time to meet with you, ideally at the business but if confidentiality is an issue at our offices. We will require amongst other things the below information about the business, from which we will be able to provide you with an appraisal based on the information you have supplied to us, where possible using at least two business appraisal methods.
Ownership of the business
Assets - tangible assets, intangible assets and stock

Staff
First of all we will need to understand the reasons for the sale and gain an understanding of your preferred exit strategy. We also need to take an overview of the business in order to advise on the best way to structure the business for sale. Many businesses are placed on the market without any pre-planning at all. For example, is the success of the business reliant on the current owner? Is significant investment going to be required in the short term? For things like new plant, machinery or premises? Are there any agreements in place with suppliers or distributors? What are the relationships with key customers and suppliers?
Thinking of buying a business?
If you are an existing business seeking to grow market share by strategic acquisition, a private purchaser or an investor interested in buying a business we may be able to help.
You can simply register with us as a purchaser and we will make sure that you are informed of any existing suitable instructions we may have at the present time. We will also make sure you are alerted to all new instructions we receive that may fit your acquisition criteria.
