We buy and sell businesses
Stratton has worked with multiple business owners as they transition to exit from the day-to-day operations of running their business, allowing them to pursue other interests or retire. We seek to maximise the value of our client’s business assets, in price and terms, on all our engagements. In addition, we have also worked with business owners to identify and facilitate the strategic purchase or take-over of a competitor or other trade player.
The success of our engagements is in knowing where transaction risks lie and avoiding circumstances that can erode value. We bring extensive corporate knowledge and a vast professional network of deep relationships. We have sold businesses to and worked with, public and private buyers, private equity firms, family offices, and high-net-worth individuals.
