A clearer view of what comes next.
Selling your business is a significant decision. Start by understanding the conversations, information and planning involved in exploring a potential acquisition.
From introduction to transition.
Every transaction is different. The sequence and timing depend on the business and the discussions between both parties.
01
Get acquainted
Discuss your operation, customers, goals and timing. Ask about Kenco and the potential fit.
02
Understand the business
If there is mutual interest, discuss confidentiality arrangements and the information needed for a closer review of the business.
03
Explore a potential transaction
Consider value, structure and the priorities that would shape a possible agreement. Work through the questions that matter to both sides.
04
Complete diligence and plan the transition
Review the business in greater detail while addressing people, customers, systems and operational requirements.
05
Close and begin the next stage
Once agreements and closing requirements are complete, put the transition plan into action and establish priorities for the work ahead.
Plan for the people
A transition raises practical questions: who communicates with employees, how customers are informed, what systems may change and who makes day-to-day decisions.
These topics deserve attention during the acquisition conversation. Bring your priorities and concerns forward so they can inform transition planning.
Long-term growth
Look beyond closing day.
Discuss the opportunities you see in the business, the support they would require and how progress could be assessed after the transition. A shared view of priorities helps make the next stage more concrete.
