Company Overview
American Business Acquisitions focuses on selling viable business
opportunities in a wide variety of industries. ABA also represents the
“real property” or real estate that is often a part of each business for
sale. The companies or clients ABA represents typically have any
number of things in common. Often times the business or company
has been operating for many years or even decades. The owner may be
2nd or 3rd or even 4th generation. In many cases the owners are very
active in the business and in other cases the owners are absentee with
a general manager or plant manager running business operations. No
matter how the company is managed, the key is to gather all the
information possible & analyze the structure of the company in order
to get the highest possible value for the business when we present the
company for sale to our buyers & buyer groups.
ABA has had great success representing businesses for sale and
helping sellers gather the appropriate details on their business. ABA
then prepares a professional Confidential Business Profile to illustrate
all details to qualified buyers. ABA works closely with the sellers of
each business to ensure an accurate business value and has had great
success in the following industries:
