Over the past couple of months, I’ve had the opportunity to work on the sale of three very different hospitality businesses, each with its challenges, timing, and approach:
- Ponsonby Road Bistro: A well-known and beloved institution, this one was put up for sale publicly and attracted strong interest before finding the right buyer.
- Bar & Eatery in Ponsonby: A confidential sale where the vendor preferred discretion. I worked within my buyer network to secure a great outcome without going public.
- Good Dog Bad Dog - Onehunga: A modern fast food concept with strong branding and systems. The sale required a different approach, focusing on the operational strengths and future potential.
Each of these deals required a tailored strategy, no two hospitality sales are the same. Whether it’s a confidential off-market process or a full marketing campaign, the key is understanding what works best for the business and the people behind it.
If you’re considering selling or simply want to explore your options, please don’t hesitate to reach out. Always happy to have a no-pressure chat.
