Message to Entrepreneurs from the Founder of Kasper & Associates

Recently I was told to thank my lucky stars that I do business in Texas.  I could only agree as I’m sure you do.  After years of business inactivity with regards to the selling and buying of companies, we are now experiencing a trend where buyers from across our country and even internationally are focused on investing in Texas companies.  As detailed in our recent press release, the Walden’s Distributing sale is indicative of current activity.  Along with the increased demand for Texas businesses, we’re seeing that growth companies in Texas are selling for almost 15% more than what they were 3 years ago.  We’re in the kind of market that business owners see only once in a long while.

As you explore the possibility of selling or buying a business, please remember the following about Kasper & Associates.

• Collectively our 6 team members have 75 years of experience in mergers and acquisitions activity.  As we approach having worked for and with 350 clients, be confident that we know how to get deals done in the manufacturing, distribution and business service sectors.
• Our reputation has been built on providing professional services with a high level of integrity.
• The Walden’s buyer was kind in stating the following, “Kasper & Associates went above and beyond what is typically expected…from the high quality ‘no-fluff’ offering memorandum to the significant time investment spent helping in due diligence, the team at Kasper & Associates was first class all the way.”

The Texas Manufacturing Assistance Center (TMAC) at UTA recently reported that 65% of Texas family-owned businesses will transition ownership over the next 5 to 6 years.  We welcome the opportunity to be part of your plans to sell or buy a company.

God Bless Texas,

Ed Kasper
