The challenge
A long-held contract catering and vending business had been marketed previously without success. The owner wanted fresh buyer reach and realistic expectations on timing.
Our approach
We re-positioned the business around contract tenure, client retention, and route density rather than headline turnover alone.
An MBI team with hospitality sector experience was introduced alongside trade buyers.
We reset the marketing timeline with clear milestones and weekly seller updates.
The outcome
The company was placed with an MBI team that matched the seller's preference for experienced operational leadership. A stalled process was restarted and completed within the agreed window.
