Welcome to Amoco
Specialists in acquiring owner managed businesses
What we buy, why and how
What we are interested in acquiring
We only look to acquire good, profitable companies where you are ready to leave for entirely sensible reasons, such as;
-
You are worn out and tired with the stresses and strains of running a private company.
-
You’re ready or overdue for retirement and can’t find a way or someone to pass the business onto.
-
Or you’re facing a sudden and life changing event such as divorce, illness or bereavement and you’ve confronted the urgent need to sell.
Looking for Investment and Help?
In certain circumstances, you may be the owner of a business that is underperforming or not reaching its full potential. You realise that you lack all of the skills and knowledge needed to be able to drive the business forward. It might be lack of funding, or in most cases lack of management, structure and organisation.
The team at Amoco combines:
-
The expertise, adequate capital and financing, and the ability to close very quickly on the right opportunities.
-
We also have a team and supporting network of business improvement and growth experts with successful track records.
Why we want to acquire these businesses
It’s a key part of our business growth strategy to do so by acquisitions. We believe that we create a “win-win” opportunity – the chance for you exit and the chance for us to take your business to the next level.
How we acquire your business
We are the actual buyers for the deals we complete, we are NOT business brokers or advisers. And we have the experience and capability to assess and make an offer for your business swiftly – often within days of the first contact.
We fully understand that your business could be the biggest asset that you own and as such selling your business should be treated with caution. It is important to us that we treat each potential acquisition as bespoke and we listen carefully to your wants and needs and a plan is made to ensure that you are completely happy with the outcome.
We also understand that for most sellers you will care very much about the good name and reputation of your business and the team you’ve built up. We are very strong in taking on and developing existing teams and looking after your team post sale.
Finance and Deal Structures
Aside from our own funds, we also have a range of commercial lenders who are active in financing acquisition deals and we also have a network of High Net Worth investors who have an appetite for such deals.
