Buy Vs Build

Big Market, Select Few Worth Pursuing
1,000+ SHV-backed Acquisitions by 2050

~200,000 Accessible, Searcher-Aligned Opportunities
Businesses that will sell over the next decade that are SBA-eligible, well-priced, and realistically winnable — this is YOUR OPPORTUNITY.

~2.7M SMBs With $1M+ Annual Revenue
However acquiring them is often “buying a job” not a business: think convenience stores, restaurants, etc.
