VALUES
OUR
PROCESS
We understand that selling a business is not just a financial decision. It is a defining moment in the life of a founder, a family, and an organization.
Selling your business is one of the most important decisions you'll ever make. We've designed our process around what matters most to founders: certainty, speed, and respect for what you've built.
TAILORED DEAL STRUCTURING
Flexible, creative terms aligned with seller objectives.
EFFICIENT EXECUTION
We move with speed and confidence to close.
CLEAR TERMS & FAIR VALUATIONS
Transparency at every step.
ONGOING PARTNERSHIP
Continued support beyond the transaction.
WHO WE PARTNER WITH
We invest in Canadian businesses with a proven track record of profitability and strong fundamentals.
Ideal partners typically have between $3 million and $20 million in EBITDA, and a history of positive cash flow.
We are sector-agnostic but gravitate toward companies in manufacturing, business services, distribution, and specialized technology.
Above all, we look for founders and leadership teams who want to protect their legacy while taking their business to the next level—with a partner who shares their values.
START A CONVERSATION
Whether you’re ready to sell, starting to plan for succession, or simply exploring your options, we welcome the opportunity to get to know you. Reach out to us in confidence. No pressure. No sales pitch. Just a conversation about the future of your business, and what it could look like with the right partner by your side.
Let’s build something meaningful, together.
