FOR BUSINESS OWNERS

Sell your business.
Make its value count.

Prepare for a full or partial sale with a clear view of your business, the value you want to achieve, and the transition that works for you.

YOUR SALE OPTIONS

More than one way to move forward.

A full sale

Discuss a complete ownership transition, the timing of your exit, and the support needed for a handover.

A partial sale or investment

Explore whether selling part of the business or bringing in an investor could fit your plans and a buyer’s objectives.

Your role after the sale

Consider a defined transition period, continued operational involvement, or a planned move toward retirement.

PREPARING TO SELL

Give buyers a business they can understand.

Organize the financial story

Bring together recent financial statements and tax returns. Explain owner compensation, unusual costs, and changes in performance so the figures can be discussed consistently.

Document how the business runs

Outline services, customers, staffing, systems, and major agreements. Show which responsibilities belong to the owner and how they could be handed over.

Set your sale priorities

Consider the price you hope to achieve alongside timing, payment structure, confidentiality, and your preferred role after a full or partial sale.

PRICE & NEGOTIATION

Put the whole agreement in view.

The sale price matters. So do payment structure, transition responsibilities, timing, and what happens after ownership changes. We help you identify the priorities to bring to a buyer discussion.

Start by explaining what you want from a sale. We then discuss the business information to organize, how buyer conversations may proceed, and the commercial terms that need attention.

A CURRENT AREA OF FOCUS

For U.S. customs brokerage owners, we already have active acquisition and investment interest. Explore a full or partial sale, transition options, and the buyer-paid brokerage fee arrangement.

THE SALE PROCESS

A clear path from first conversation
to an agreed transition.

Each transaction follows its own pace. This is the general sequence, shaped around the business and the parties’ agreed goals.

  1. CONFIDENTIAL DISCOVERY

    Start the conversation

    Discuss the possibility of a sale and agree on confidentiality before sharing sensitive information.

  2. OWNER PRIORITIES

    Define your goals

    Clarify price expectations, timing, full or partial ownership, and your preferred role after a sale.

  3. BUSINESS PREPARATION

    Build the picture

    Organize financials, the business overview, customer mix, and the information a buyer will need.

  4. BUYER DISCUSSIONS

    Explore buyer fit

    Discuss the business with a prospective buyer and assess commercial and transition priorities.

  5. COMMERCIAL TERMS

    Negotiate the terms

    Work through price, payment structure, transition timing, and continued owner involvement.

  6. DILIGENCE & TRANSITION

    Work toward closing

    Coordinate information review with the parties and their advisers, then plan the agreed handover.

Start with a conversation. Move forward when the next step is right for you.

Discuss your sale
TIMING YOUR SALE

Readiness shapes the pace.

There is no fixed sale timetable. The business, buyer readiness, and the terms all influence how the process develops.

Before buyer discussions

Clear records, realistic priorities, and an agreed information-sharing process help reduce avoidable back-and-forth.

During negotiation & review

Questions about performance, financing, contracts, or the proposed structure can affect the schedule. Work through them before setting expectations around a closing date.

At closing & handover

The parties need to coordinate the documents, funds, approvals, and practical transition arrangements that apply to the agreed transaction.

FEES & CONFIDENTIALITY

Understand the arrangement before you begin.

Who pays the brokerage fee?

For the customs brokerage acquisition opportunity described on this site, our brokerage fee is paid by the buyer. Sellers do not pay us a brokerage fee. Fee arrangements for other engagements are discussed in advance.

What should be agreed at the outset?

Discuss the scope of support, the parties we will work with, the fee arrangement, and when any payment would be due. These points should be clear before an engagement begins.

How is confidentiality handled?

Begin with a general discussion. Agree on confidentiality expectations, any appropriate nondisclosure agreement, and who may receive information before sensitive records are shared.

Do I need to submit records for an initial conversation?

No. Start with your goals, timing, and a general business overview. We can then discuss what information would be useful and how it should be shared.

Can I sell part of the business or remain involved?

A full sale is one option. A partial sale, investment, or continuing role can also be discussed where it fits the parties’ goals. Price, responsibilities, and transition arrangements should be considered together.

START WITH A CONFIDENTIAL CONVERSATION

Thinking about selling?
Let’s discuss your options.

Talk through your timing, price expectations, and whether a full or partial sale could fit your plans. You can start with a general conversation before sharing sensitive records.
