Somerset Operators — Industrial Business Sales
A business brokerage for owners of industrial companies valued $300K to $10M. We represent you, find qualified buyers, and run the deal so you don't have to run it alone.
What We Do
Selling an industrial business is unfamiliar territory for most owners. We represent you from the first conversation through closing — so you get a fair price, a qualified buyer, and a process that doesn't drag on for years.
Valuation
01A buyer-grounded estimate of what your business will actually sell for — cash flow, margin, and multiple, not wishful thinking. Start with our free calculator.
Marketing
02We package your business and put it in front of qualified buyers — strategic acquirers, private equity, and individual buyers — without tipping off your customers, competitors, or employees.
Screening
03We qualify buyers on financial capacity and seriousness before they ever see your numbers. Fewer tire-kickers, more closed deals.
Negotiation
04We negotiate price and structure, manage due diligence, and keep the deal moving to close — so you can keep running the business while it's being sold.
What We Represent
$300K–$10M
We focus on industrial businesses in this valuation range — the lower middle market that's too small for most investment banks and too complex for a generic listing site.
Industrial
Manufacturing, industrial services, distribution, and B2B operations. We understand the equipment, the financials, and the buyers who compete for these businesses.
Seller-Side
We work exclusively for you, the seller. Our job is to get you the best price and terms the market will bear — nothing else.
Where We Work
Home base is the Research Triangle — Raleigh, Durham, and Chapel Hill, North Carolina. We also actively represent sellers across the following markets.
The Carolinas, Columbus OH metro, Georgia, Florida, Texas, Northwest Arkansas, Nevada, Utah, Idaho, Montana, and Wyoming.
Alberta and Quebec in Canada. Select growing international markets including Australia, New Zealand, Europe, Hong Kong, Mexico, and Latin America.
