Jamieson's broad knowledge and experience across a wide variety of manufacturing, distribution and service industries enables us to conduct an efficient business search of industry directories and data bases on behalf of a client to find and to buy a business that is suitable. In certain industry groups we know most of the participants from past dealings. Insurance brokers, customs brokers, freight forwarders, occupational health providers and real estate services are particular examples of such groups.

Following consultation with our client the owners of the target businesses are approached. If they are receptive at this stage, we usually need to disclose the identity of the purchaser in order to obtain financial and operating data.

The Jamieson business acquisition process then goes through similar steps to the business sales process outlined under the Business Sales section. It includes analysis of various characteristics such as the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats faced by the business and financial and other quantitative factors. The process also includes assessing the value of the target business, structuring an offer proposal and negotiation, and assistance with the necessary documentation leading to the completion of a successful transaction to buy a business.

We prepare a report on each willing prospect, in particular  with reference to likely market value of the business, and provide our own recommendations.
