Selling a distribution business.

For a distributor, value sits in supplier relationships, customer loyalty and the systems that tie them together. We help owners show buyers how the business performs, and why it will keep performing after a sale.

What buyers look at

What shapes the value of a distribution business.

01

Supplier relationships

Established lines, authorisations and favourable terms are difficult for a competitor to replicate.

02

Customer base

Repeat buyers across many accounts, rather than a few large ones, give buyers confidence in future revenue.

03

Inventory and systems

Accurate inventory, working ERP and clear reporting speed up diligence and support working-capital discussions.

04

Margins and mix

A clear view of margin by product line and customer helps buyers understand where the business earns its money.
