Acquisitions Drive Growth

Platform, Add-On, or Tuck-In Acquisitions

Entrepreneurs who choose to grow through acquisition are two-times more likely than firms that grow organically to experience sales growth above their industry average  (see study). Over the next five years approximately 120,000 Canadian businesses will come up for sale outside the family or management (see study).


Buying or merging with an existing business is a major transition for both parties. Without a thorough plan or sufficient expertise, your transaction may fall victim to unwanted surprises or worse, fall apart entirely. With shareholder value on the line, you need advisors who can deliver an effective strategy at every stage.


We have developed a proven process for acquisitions that reduces risk and ensures you acquire your new asset at the best price possible. 


While most private companies focus on orgnaic growth, public companies, private equity firms and sophisticated entrepreneurs with strong operating experience engage the Shaughnessy Group to outsource and reduce their risks and costc by outsourcing acquisitions for their company or fund to our team when buying a business.


Learm how lots of small M&A deals add up to big value.
