Business Sales Expert
Buying your own business can be rewarding and puts you in charge of an established organisation. Your acquisition can give you a head start compared to setting up a new brand, allowing you to tap into the current customer base and utilise existing infrastructure.
We have made the process as straightforward as possible to ensure a smooth transition of power when you complete the acquisition. Our agents have decades of experience and understand the intricacies that come with buying companies in various sectors.
From initial research to negotiations and completion, we offer a full-scale service to help you become the new owner. Call 0113 340 9840 or fill out our get in touch form to arrange a free consultation.
We are proud to sell businesses from many industries, giving you ample choice when deciding which type you would like to buy. Some of our specialist areas include care homes, dental practices, nurseries, hotels and restaurants.
Taking over an existing business can be a faster and more secure path to entrepreneurship compared to starting one from scratch. Key benefits of an acquisition include:
Immediate revenue – Start earning money the moment you take over
Established brand – A recognised name and reputation means customers may opt for your services
Trained staff – No large recruitment drives or training are required, ensuring you hit the ground running immediately
Operational infrastructure – Access current systems, supply chains and premises for a smooth transition
Easier financing – Lenders may be more willing to fund acquisitions with a good profit history
““The strategic benefit of buying a business lies in inheriting its customer base and market presence. This immediate access to revenue and reputation offers a faster and more secure path to profitability.””
Paul Williamson
Managing Director
Begin by clarifying your goals, defining a budget and selecting the industry you want to enter. Assess your skills and experience to identify business types that you believe you could add value to. Taking time to research current market conditions and developing a clear investment strategy can also be beneficial.
Search for companies that align with your objectives. Using business agents, like ours here at Eddisons Business Sales, can help speed up the process. Once you have found one you like the look of, assess its finances, legal status and growth potential to ensure it is a viable investment opportunity. Please note, you may be required to sign a non-disclosure agreement (NDA) at this stage.
Meet with the existing owner to discuss price, terms and sale conditions. We can assist with negotiations if you need any support along the way. Work with your lawyers and accountants to finalise the agreement and transfer ownership correctly.
