A Gloucestershire-based property advisory company has successfully completed a Trade Sale, in a deal advised on by GS Verde Group.

Established over 5 years ago, the facilities consultancy provides a variety of services for clients including management consultancy, technical consultancy and asset surveys.

The Trade Sale will be an advantageous route for the company as it boosts growth opportunities and paves the way for long-term success.

Trade sales enable assets or shares to be sold to another company within the same sector or industry and is a beneficial exit strategy for a business. By selling shares or assets to another company, a business can ensure continuity remains during the process of transferring ownership. This is particularly valuable as the new owners will often share the same vision as the seller - protecting the legacy and operations of the business.

For buyers, acquiring a business presents a wide variety of opportunities within their own industry and an enticing amount of strategic benefits. Purchasing a company allows business owners to experience significant growth by expanding their customer base within new geographic regions, inheriting an already existing customer base and implementing new products and services. Another advantage for buyers when acquiring a company is being able to build on an established reputation and its internal operations rather than building a business from scratch.

For sellers, a trade sale is a chance to achieve specific goals as a business owner such as pursuing new ventures or preparing for retirement. Finding a buyer whose vision and goals align with yours will encourage your business to continue flourishing. Another benefit of selling a business within the same industry is being able to experience a smoother and seamless transition, with both parties having a mutual understanding of the market.
