M&A Experts Who Know Manufacturing Inside and Out
Market Context

What Our Happy Users Says
Our Clients Sell Faster, for More,
and With Less Stress
We understand manufacturing, not just M&A.
Our founder owned multiple manufacturing companies before advising owners. We know your operations—and how to position them for buyers. When one broker mistook tooling for inventory, we knew this industry needed better representation.
We deliver results, not just advice.
We’ve sold 31 of 33 listings, totaling over $55 million in transaction volume. One recent listing drew 243 inquiries, 9 tours, and 7 offers—within just 11 weeks.
We handle everything personally—no handoffs.
From the first meeting to the final negotiations, our founder is involved at every step. He personally screens buyers, runs tours, and even drives cross-state if needed.
