ABOUT THE BUYER
The buyer is a group of experienced senior executives with specific expertise in operations, logistics, organizational efficiency, marketing, and sales. Industry experience includes a broad scope from product-based companies to business intelligence, marketing, engineering, financial services and research, to design, build and remodeling within both small businesses and Fortune 100 companies.
As operators and entrepreneurs replacing the existing owner, the principles will take a hands-on role to capitalize on the existing strengths of the company, and leverage the additional value and experience that the principles bring. As a small investment group vs. a single individual buyer, a strategic approach, depth of expertise, and financial strength is at the core. The result is a buyer that brings the best of both a hands- on owner/operator and an investment group—without the restraints traditionally imposed by investment groups, and without the weaknesses of the typical individual.
