Looking to sell your business...? Secure your legacy with us now before higher taxes come into effect
Whether you're considering retirement or navigating recent tax changes, MM Holdings offers a reliable solution. With a proven track record in acquiring and operating B2B SMEs, we ensure your business legacy is preserved, offering both full and partial sales options.
What we do
Buy businesses
We buy B2B businesses of all sizes from owners looking to retire or exit before additional tax rises come into effect. We typically acquire a 100% shareholding but are also open to exploring partial sales. We provide owners a different exit option from the usual choice of national competitor or private equity.
Operate independently
We are experienced SME operators, with a proven track record of acquiring, running and growing companies of all sizes across a wide range of sectors. We care about long-term quality and continuity and know what it takes to achieve this. We are not a broker.
Protect your legacy
SME owners often face selling to a large competitor likely to absorb their operations or to investors who may roll it into other acquisitions, risking their business’s identity. We offer an alternative: we’ll run your business independently, preserving your legacy and supporting your team.
Why now could be the best time to sell your business
Selling now could save you tens of thousands in tax payments
"Double" inheritance tax
Proposed inheritance tax changes could significantly increase costs for family business owners, resulting in tax bills that could run into the millions.
Save up to £80k on tax
When you sell your business you pay tax on the profits of the sale. These tax rates are set to increase significantly from April 2025.
Want to retire but no succession plan
We offer an exit route to owners looking to retire. But we know you don’t want to just ride off into the sunset without a care for your people, customers, or legacy. We specialise in retirement acquisitions
Why trust us with your business?
-
Experienced operators not professional investors
We are looking for trusted, quality businesses that we can buy and operate. We aren't a private equity company looking to make a quick profit.
-
Continuity and growth not revolution
We are about steady, responsible growth and building on what already works. We aren't into reinventing the wheel.
-
Trusted custodians of your legacy
We know the care and dedication it takes to build a business. We know the care and responsibility you feel towards your staff. We respect this and keep it at the heart of the next chapter.
Some of our experience acquiring and running SME's...
Acquired from retiring founder, after 35 years of leadership. All customers and staff remained with the business, including members of the seller's family. Sale included the distributor's warehouse. Deferred consideration was also paid off one year earlier than contractually required.
On recommendation of a seller from another of our acquisitions, this small but specialist supplier with a trusted reputation in the industry reached out to complete a quick sale for health reasons. Initial conversation to completion took just two months. Sale included all assets and stock on an as seen basis.
Designing, manufacturing and selling direct to businesses, this company was also acquired from a founder who wished to retire. One year in, not only has revenue been grown responsibly, and a new product line soon to come to market, but employee engagement is at an all time high.
