Acquisitions
Where there is no conflict of interest, we will use our proactive search system to find a target company for purchasers and vendors alike.
Sometimes the only way to achieve rapid growth is to acquire an existing business.
Acquisition strategies are undertaken for a variety of reasons. It could be that you want to:
- increase buying power with suppliers
- achieve consolidation of supply or markets
- reduce risk through product diversification.
- acquire a distribution network for an existing product line
Whatever the underlying reasons, the one thing that all acquisition strategies have in common is a desire to strengthen and grow your business.
Acquisitions need careful planning if a successful outcome is to be achieved.
AMS works with clients at every stage of the process, helping to:
- develop and implement acquisition strategies
- identify suitable targets — either in the UK or overseas
- research and initiate discussion with potential targets.
- arrange and attend purchaser / vendor meetings
- negotiate, structure and close the deal.
