County Business Sales also offer professional advice, consultancy and broker services to mid-market and corporate clients (sales revenue between £500,000 and £10,000,000+).
Medium sized and specialist businesses require a very tailored approach to marketing and the formulation of an effective disposal strategy at the outset is key.
