Company Overview

Our North Bay office is an affiliate of Sunbelt, the world's largest business brokerage group with over 300 offices worldwide, and 25 in California. We broker the sale of approximately 4,000 businesses each year.

From a single office in Charleston, South Carolina, Sunbelt began began helping buyers find businesses for sale in 1978. In 1991, Ed Pendarvis, Sunbelt’s founder, began partnering with local entrepreneurs to open additional Sunbelt offices throughout the Carolinas. In each new city, Sunbelt quickly became the dominant business brokerage firm thanks to its unique approach to the market and its proprietary methodologies. Recognizing the potential appeal of offering business brokers a proven operating system and brand name with which to associate themselves, Sunbelt began selling franchises in 1993.

Our business brokerage professionals are dedicated to providing our buyers and sellers with superior service throughout the entire buying or selling process. Our network of industry and transaction specialists can help you sell, buy, merge or build business value.

As the largest business intermediary in the world, no one has greater market reach than Sunbelt. Like many of our competitors, Sunbelt uses a dozen business-for-sale websites, including our top ranked proprietary website, direct mail, and targeted e-mail campaigns. Unlike our competitors, we have 300 offices worldwide to reach out to the market for additional interest in your business, beyond our targeted and advertised marketing.

Sunbelt business brokers help those buying or selling businesses in these markets:

Main Street Businesses
Main Street businesses are usually considered to be those with annual sales below $2,000,000 or few than 20 employees (95% of US businesses fall into this category). Sunbelt is the clear market leader in main street business sale transactions. No one sells more main street businesses than Sunbelt.

Franchise Resales
Thousands of franchised main street businesses sell every year. A franchised business has many advantages for the first-time business owner, or those with strong management skills who are willing to follow a proven system. Those looking to buy or sell a franchise can benefit from Sunbelt's vast franchise resale knowledge and experience.

Middle Market Businesses
Sunbelt is also a leader in the sale of lower "middle market" businesses - typically considered to be businesses that sell in the range of $3,000,000 to $30,000,000.  No one has more national or global reach than Sunbelt's M&A advisory team. You are considering the most important business decision you will ever make - to sell or merge your company or divest of a division. You need and deserve the best M&A advisors to help you. Sunbelt has the manpower, systems and processes to directly contact the parties we identify as strategic acquisition candidates, nationally and internationally.
