Our Approach

Legacy-Driven

At Minot Legacy Partners, we serve sellers who care about their company's future. We seek private businesses, especially founder or family-owned, with the following characteristics:

Transition: Ready for sale or succession

Type/Sectors: Diversified services or light manufacturing with differentiated product

Financials: $2 - 20M+ revenue, consistent profitability

Customer Base: Broad with low concentration

Location: Headquartered in North America

Team: Strong existing team, 5 - 30+ employees


We work closely with owners to understand their business, build trust, and explore all transition options. We look to strike a fair deal and, after closing, roll up our sleeves to work hard, build meaningful relationships, and deliver continued, long-term success.
