SME ACQUISITION OPPORTUNITY SOURCING AND INTRODUCTION
We specialize in the proactive sourcing of acquisition opportunities in the SME sector (companies with up to ~EUR/USD 10 million in revenue). We scan the market to identify valuable businesses that are not publicly advertised for sale and facilitate confidential, direct introductions between you (the buyer) and the owners of these businesses. Our services are aimed at investors who intend to own and develop acquired companies over the long term (buy-and-hold) rather than resell them quickly—an approach that resonates with many founders who wish to see their legacy grow sustainably under new leadership, or who choose to remain at the helm after the change in ownership.
TYPES OR TRANSACTIONS WE TARGET
▢ Succession situations: acquisition of family-owned businesses (e.g., owners nearing retirement without an internal successor).
▢ Strategic growth acquisitions: expansion of a company through the acquisition of smaller competitors or complementary businesses to increase market share, product range, or operational capacity.
▢ Cross-border transactions: cross-border acquisitions (foreign investors interested in Romanian companies, or Romanian investors seeking acquisition opportunities abroad) – with support in navigating local business and cultural differences.
OUR PROCESS
▢ Defining criteria: understanding the target company profile and the goals of the acquisition.
▢ Research & selection: analyzing the market to identify and shortlist the most promising companies.
▢ Confidential outreach: discreetly contacting owners and gauging their interest in discussions.
▢ Direct introduction: coordinating the initial meeting and putting you in direct contact with the seller, after which you lead the negotiations and acquisition process.
