Firm Built Exclusively for Foreign Buyers

Our Story

During my many years as an attorney and entrepreneur, I’ve seen clients struggle to start up businesses, whether in their country or abroad. The challenges were great and the failures is many. It became obvious that acquiring or merging with an existing business was a more efficient and pragmatic way to proceed. Acquiring an existing company or a franchise often accelerates market entry, reduces initial commercial risk and can provide immediate cash flow. Buyers gain access to an operating infrastructure, customer base, supplier relationships, and trained staff. Statistically and based on my experience, entrepreneurs have a better chance of succeeding by purchasing an operating business compared to starting one. Buying an existing profitable business can carry a 2–5x higher probability of long‑term survival compared to starting one from scratch. This aligns with the fact that: Startups have only a 10% success rate. Existing businesses have already passed the high‑risk early years where 70% of startups fail (ff.co; codeless.co/startup-statistics/)
