Benchmark International proved value in finding a buyer with experience in the industry through its proprietary multi-medium marketing strategies. Also, Benchmark International incorporated several campaigns with local, regional, and national associations. While clients are often hesitant to meet with local competitors, after speaking with both parties about their goals with a potential transaction, it was abundantly clear that there could be a great fit between them. After much work, we could get both parties in the same room where the great cultural fit emerged.

Deal Associate Amy Alonso commented, "We are excited to see that our client's legacy will remain and prosper through this transaction. We understood that our client was seeking a company that would provide a succession plan for the company's future while also providing a great work environment for their employees. On behalf of Benchmark International, we wish both companies continued success in the future."
