TESTIMONIALS
"Deciding to sell our company was one of the most important decisions of our life and we believed that the choice of people who would guide us in this great adventure was crucial. We were looking for advisors who shared the same values as us -respect, integrity, discipline and dedication. Unquestionably we found it all in Geneva. We could never have hoped to conclude such a transaction without them. The extent of their network, their desire to understand the organization, its challenges and its core values made a huge difference to the outcome."
Jean- Yves Moreau, Jean-Francois Moreau & Chantal Cadieux, Moreau Group
"Brian Trainor and the entire Geneva team were as thorough as they were professional from start to finish. They left no details out and the marketing plan was set up to help achieve maximum value for our business. It was obvious right from the start that Brian and his staff were constantly researching our industry in order to market our business effectively. The constant communication from Geneva left no questions unanswered and there was always follow up when required. From the start, Brian went through every detail with us in order to know as much as possible about our business. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Geneva Merger & Acquisitions to anyone looking to sell their business, no matter what the reason."
Jamie and Jackie Mullen, former owners of Mullen Rigging

"We want to take the opportunity to communicate to the Geneva team our appreciation for your professionalism and constant effort to see our deal come to fruition. Geneva Canada took the time to understand our business and, through their well-developed process, go to the marketplace and generate the required interest for our business. Our requirement to find a strategic buyer for which GAP is a real value-add was met. Your support and know-how throughout this complex deal, involving Canadian and US entities, was key to the success of the transaction"

"Geneva's diligent methodology to learning about our industry, company and business model allowed them to approach a broad network of strategic and financial companies with the confidence necessary to attract a number of suitable partners. Geneva managed the velocity of information and the relationships with potential partners to line up offers that could be reviewed by us in parallel. This helped Care Factor create a competitive situation that allowed us to extract the best value possible. We would recommend Geneva for any SME looking to sell all or a portion of their company to a private or strategic buyer."
