Confidential introductions for UK business sales
YS3 Capital connects owners of established UK businesses with acquirers looking for businesses like theirs, before anything goes on the open market.
Start a confidential conversationWho it's for
Business owners
Thinking about succession, retirement or an exit, and wanting to explore options quietly, with no obligation.
Acquirers
Buy-and-build groups, search funds and trade buyers with clear acquisition criteria, looking for off-market opportunities.
How it works
- We learn what each side is looking for.
- When there's a genuine match, we introduce the parties, but only with the owner's written consent, and only after the buyer has signed a confidentiality agreement.
- The buyer and owner, with their own advisers, take it from there.
What we do and don't do
- We introduce parties for sales of a whole business, a majority of its shares, or its assets.
- We do not value businesses, negotiate deals, or give financial, investment, legal or tax advice. Please take independent professional advice.
- Our fee, if any, is agreed in writing before any introduction and is normally paid by the buyer.
- A business owner's identity is never shared without their written agreement.
