Strategic Business Sales

& Employee Ownership Trusts

You only sell your business once. Let’s make it count.

Uncovering the Layers that Maximise Your Exit

You’ve built something remarkable – now let’s ensure you get what it’s truly worth.

Selling your business marks the culmination of a lifetime’s work – your relationships, reputation, and expertise. Naturally, big questions arise: Will I get a fair price? What happens to my team? Is now the right time?

At Avondale, we’ve supported hundreds of owners of successful private businesses through these vital decisions, providing clarity, confidence, and a clear path forward to maximising value.

As specialists in strategic business sales and employee ownership trusts, we understand your business is more than numbers. It’s built on trusted relationships, market credibility, and specialist knowledge. We look beyond the balance sheet to understand what you’ve built and help you realise that value, on your terms.

Whilst we were very experienced businessmen, we had no experience of selling a successful company.

It quickly became apparent that Avondale’s reach in the business world and their high level of competency managing the transaction were crucial to us achieving a successful exit from the business.

Why Choose Us

Selling your business is unfamiliar territory. You have built a successful and valuable company but this process is different: high stakes, complex, and filled with jargon. Every decision shapes your outcome.

Our multi-layered approach covers every phase – buyer selection, negotiation, transaction, and transition planning. We protect what matters most – your people, your reputation, and your legacy – while delivering a result that reflects everything you’ve achieved.

We chose Avondale for their deep understanding of both us and our business.

Their expertise and empathy guided us seamlessly through a complex sale, earning our trust and delivering the best possible outcome for us and our company.
