Franchise Business Brokers & Specialty Distribution Experts

As your trusted franchise business brokers, Sunbelt Atlanta's Franchise and Specialty Distribution division offers tailored exit strategies for franchisors, franchisees, and manufacturers using distributorship and dealer network business models.

Sunbelt Atlanta has extensive experience as franchise business brokers, representing business owners in the sale of companies in various sectors, including retail, automotive, healthcare & medical, fitness, consulting, home improvement, textile, and construction. From single unit operators and multi-unit franchisees to franchisors and manufacturers, our industry expertise ensures that you receive the maximum value for your business sale.

M&A activity in the franchise space is on the rise. Private equity firms, family offices, and other significant investment entities have recognized the value of the franchise business model. Many are actively and aggressively pursuing acquisitions of franchisors and multi-unit franchisees to enhance their portfolios. Additionally, single unit franchise sales are increasing, especially among late-born baby boomers seeking second careers.

Franchisors and franchisees, both large and small, can anticipate more buyers and higher multiples in the years ahead. At Sunbelt, we're not just franchise business brokers; we're experts who understand the unique aspects of selling a franchise or distributorship. We welcome the opportunity to support you with the transition of your business.
