Some founders stay on as non-executive advisers, others consult part-time during transition. We tailor it to your pace and wishes.

We value based on EBITDA (profit), client retention, contracts, and market position — ensuring a fair, transparent process.

We provide flexibility: upfront sales, phased exits, or earn-outs.

No. Many founders stay involved for 6–24 months to ensure a smooth transition. Others prefer to exit right away.

We protect jobs and reassure staff. Joining The Barns Group gives them more opportunities, not fewer.

Continuity is a priority. We maintain service standards and client relationships before introducing any new branding.

In most cases, yes. We preserve the brand identity that clients trust, while adding the strength of being part of The Barns Group.

Most businesses are fully integrated within 6–12 months.

We prefer cash-flow positive firms but will consider underperforming businesses with recovery potential.
