Sell Your Business
Are you a business owner considering options for succession planning? If you agree with one or more of the following statements, conversion to employee ownership is worth exploring for your company:
I want the positive impacts I’ve built into my business – good jobs, connection to community, best practices in our sector – to last beyond my time as the owner.
I believe the risks and rewards of ownership can reinforce a culture of high quality work and shared responsibility that improves productivity and the bottom line.
I want to receive a fair value from the sale of the business I have built and feel the employees may value the company as much, or more, than an outside buyer.
Cooperation Buffalo and our conversion program can help bring a transition to worker ownership within reach for retiring or exiting business owners. Our non-extractive financing is accompanied by the technical assistance needed to ensure a successful transition for your employees.
