Sunbelt Business Brokers Facilitates Sale of a Chicago-based Smoothie Store Concept

Chicago, IL, August 28, 2006 --(PR.com)-- Sunbelt Business Brokers, the dominant business brokerage firm in Chicago, reported that it facilitated the sale of new smoothie store concept in the Chicago area. This business was on the market for less than six months, during which time multiple prospective buyers were generated, and resulted in an attractive exit strategy for the business owners and an excellent opportunity for the buyers.

Sunbelt was retained by the Seller to manage the entire business acquisition process which included obtaining a third party valuation, developing a confidential marketing plan, fielding offers, coordinating due diligence, and overseeing the complexities of the closing and management transition.

“This smoothie concept is brand new to the Chicago market and generated a lot of interest for potential buyers”, stated Domenic Rinaldi, managing partner of Chicagoland Sunbelt. “This deal will fuel the growth of this concept in the area and may result in a franchising opportunity for the previous owners of this smoothie store.”

Sunbelt recommends that potential buyers and sellers become educated on the realities of small business acquisitions. Buyers should be certain to locate transaction-oriented advisors, meet with potential financial providers, research the local market, utilize a professional business broker and choose a business for the work first and the financials second. Sellers should hire a professional business broker, obtain a valuation, understand their tax consequences, confidentially market the business and rely on experienced advisors.
