Take Your Next Step With Us
Benchmark International continues to adapt to a changing marketplace for the businesses of its seller clients. As our growth led to a sharp increase in the number of companies we are bringing to market with historical EBITDA exceeding $11 million, we realized that acquirers in this portion of the market have different demands and expectations.
As a result, we formed a special team to manage these opportunities, modified Benchmark International's processes a bit, and shifted to a more relationship-based model of interacting with this community of acquirers.

Our Team
We are always interested in hearing from well-funded family offices, PE funds, and strategic buyers.
If we are not already in communication with you on a frequency and format that you view as ideal, please send us an EMAIL HERE or give us a call at +1 813 449 4878.
Otherwise, we look forward to meeting up with you (again) at one of the dozens of M&A conferences we attend each year, including those put on by ACG, AM&AA, the Family Office Club, Northstar, OpusConnect, and Akerman, among others.
Wherever the format allows, we secure a deal table and, in a very proactive manner, arrange our speed dating meetings in advance of the conference, so please do reach out to us if you will be attending any of these events and see our name.
