Your business is not publicly marketed.
We approach a limited number of qualified acquirers.
You decide which conversations move forward.
Serica & Co. is compensated by the buyer if a transaction closes.
You don't have to be
ready to sell.
Many of the owners we speak with are not actively running a sale process.
They may simply want to understand who could be interested, what different ownership options might look like, or whether the right buyer exists.
Serica & Co. provides a discreet way to explore those questions without immediately committing to a formal process.
A discreet process, on your terms.
- 01
We get to know the business
We begin with a confidential conversation about what you've built, your objectives, and what would make an opportunity worth considering.
- 02
We identify potential acquirers
Serica evaluates private equity firms, family offices, holding companies, and strategic buyers whose acquisition criteria and ownership approach may fit.
- 03
We quietly test interest
With your permission, we can share a limited anonymous overview with selected buyers. Your company's identity remains confidential.
- 04
You choose who you meet
If a buyer expresses serious interest, we discuss the opportunity with you first. No introduction happens without your approval.
- 05
Take the conversation further, or don't
If there is mutual interest, we make the introduction. If the fit is not right, there is no obligation to proceed.
The right buyer
matters.
Price is important, but it is rarely the only consideration.
For many owners, employees, culture, reputation, continued involvement, and the long-term direction of the business matter as well.
Serica takes those priorities into account when determining which acquirers are worth introducing.
Who the buyers
may be

A conversation doesn't mean
you're for sale.
If you're curious about buyer interest, considering a transaction, or simply want to understand your options, we're happy to begin privately.
