At Transworld we have mergers and acquisitions department that has a team of professionals that specialize in larger transactions. What qualifies a business to be an M&A transaction? There are several situations that could make your business qualify for M&A department:

• Your business has earning greater than 1 million dollars. When businesses grow to this size they become targets for acquisition by industry players.
• Your business is too large for an individual buyer to purchase or finance through conventional methods. Once your business is worth multi millions, a single individual usually will not purchase it.
• Your business is in an industry that is currently being "rolled up". In some industries, strategic buyers that want to consolidate the marketplace will purchase even small businesses.
• Your business is experiencing incredible growth. If your business is running out of capital because of expansion, it may be an M&A target.
• You want to grow your business and perhaps retain some equity. If that is the case, you will need M&A expertise.
