CEO Message
People are what make this great world turn. Crunching numbers and analyzing a myriad of information are all part of what it takes to be involved in the complexity of mergers, acquisitions and business sales. One thing we've learned over the past thirty years of business acquisition, ownership and sale is that a good deal does not happen without people working to a common goal. My goal is to continue along the path of finding ways to make win-win deals as a Business Broker. Yes, this can be much more work than just selling a business for what ever the first buyer might pay, but the long term results are both self-satisfying and insure a steady stream of referrals. Please allow George and Company the opportunity to be your broker/intermediary in what just might be the most important thing you have ever done in your life. Thanks for reading.
Christopher R. George, President & CEO
Mission Statement
George and Company, as a Massachusetts Business Brokerage corporation, owes a fiduciary duty to the Seller Company in most cases. This duty is to bring our client company the highest price the market will bear, under the most favorable terms. This stated, consideration to the buyer is with regard to consummating a transaction that has both parties leaving the closing table with smiles. This mission has been accomplished hundreds of times over the past three decades.
Company Background
George and Company was formed, quite by accident, in the late 1970's to aid small businesses in transition in Worcester, Massachusett. Christopher George, company president, having owned and sold 16 companies of his own and having utilized the services of other business broker, felt there was a different way. "When you have been on both sides of the closing table, you gain a new perspective" says George. This new perspective to business sales has been enormously successful. Starting with a partner who knew little about business opportunities, but was president of the local Board of Realtors, George & Company required that all associates be licensed as real estate brokers and/or stock brokers. This requirement is far beyond the requirements of the Massachusetts Board of Registration but has attracted a greatly skilled and professional staff to the firm. The company continued to grow, serving small business throughout the Central Massachusetts area. In the 1980's, George and Company was engaged to represent a multi-billion dollar publicly traded company in the sale of its manufacturing division. This experience gave the firm a great start in mergers and acquisitions in the middle market arena. While we have not forgotten our roots in the sale of Main Street businesses, we are proud to have recently completed a transaction where the final selling price negotiated by George and Company was $36 million in cash! Chris George, Jeff Lefebvre, Ron Kirwood, John Maywalt, Dick Taylor, Marianna Osipenko, Dale Euga, Allie Hebert and Leslie Escobar stand ready to answer your questions and to be of assistance.
