A safe exit
You spent years building it. We buy all or part of the company, pay a fair price, and keep what you built running.
Continuing your legacy
We invest in and acquire businesses, mainly in the UK, the US, Canada and Australia, across a wide range of sectors. We plan the succession with you, so the business carries on into its next chapter.
Why owners come to us
Flexible finance
Creditor pressure, a lost contract, a bank that wants out. We move within days with capital, and work beside you to steady the business.
Room to grow
We help you grow the business, then agree a sale figure with you or match you with a better suited buyer.
How it works
A first conversation
Confidential and without obligation. We learn what you want for yourself, your team and the business.
A clear offer
Structured around your goals: a full or partial sale, a staged exit, or capital to grow.
Diligence, done with respect
We check what we need to and no more, quickly, and we do not disturb your customers or staff.
Completion
On the terms we agreed. Our own money, no financing conditions we cannot control.
After the deal
We stay close: the right management, stronger operations and steady growth in value.
Business valuation
A free, confidential business valuation in about four minutes. Share your accounts and the figures are read for you, or answer a few quick questions instead.

Questions owners ask
Can I sell part of my business rather than all of it?
Yes. We buy all or part of a company, and the offer is structured around your goals: a full or partial sale, a staged exit, or capital to grow. You choose how long you stay, and how.
Can you provide finance rather than buy?
Yes. Creditor pressure, a lost contract, a bank that wants out: we move within days with flexible capital, and work beside you to steady the business.
Where do you buy businesses?
Mainly in the UK, the US, Canada and Australia, across a wide range of sectors.
How do you pay for the business?
With our own money, structured around your goals: a full or partial sale, or a staged exit. There are no financing conditions we cannot control.
What happens to my team and my customers?
Your people are looked after. We buy businesses to run them, not to break them up or move them. Diligence is quick, and we do not disturb your customers or staff.
What happens after the sale?
We stay close: the right management, stronger operations and steady growth in value. We plan the succession with you, so the business carries on into its next chapter.
Is the first conversation confidential?
Yes. Everything is in confidence from the first call, and the first conversation is without obligation.
How long does it take?
A first view within days of seeing the figures. Diligence is quick, and completion is on the terms we agreed, as soon as the paperwork allows.
Is my business the right size?
We look at owner-managed businesses with a team beyond the owner, growing or under pressure, across a wide range of sectors. If you are unsure, the first conversation answers it for both of us.
