THE EFT Story
Our Why
Enabling your future transition
We will get you sale-ready from a buyer’s perspective in order to maximise your exit value, achieve your exit objectives and minimise the stress that comes with selling a business.
Preparation, planning and timing are everything, we will guide you through the whole process while you keep your eyes on developing and growing your business.
Too many businesses are sold for less than they are worth or before they are sale ready and all too often the right buyers have not been considered, never mind engaged.
Some owners believe they can handle the sale by themselves or simply use a broker, this seldom works out in the seller’s best interests.
We are specialists and have backgrounds in Building Materials, Manufacturing and Distribution, our team of 4 have over 120 years of experience in these Sectors.
