The small business acquisitions market is looking increasingly healthy with many firms almost continually working on a new potential transaction.
Take independent insurance intermediary Cullum Capital Ventures (CCV) where they have had a bumper month, picking up four businesses in September, taking their acquisition total to nine so far this year.
And it's not set to stop, with CCV's busy chief executive Michael Rea saying that the company's deal pipeline is stronger than he has ever seen it.
The latest acquisitions will push the firm towards the £300 million premium mark by the end of the year. CCV often prefers to let the acquired businesses continue to trade in their existing premises and under their existing names which helps retain the staff.
