What We Look For

Enduring Profitability

A business with a stable and demonstrable track record of profitability. We favour businesses with loyal, recurring customers and revenues that are predictable from one year to the next.

Operational Potential

We target businesses where the implementation of systems, processes and management best practices can support organic growth and create opportunities for future expansion, including through acquisitions.

Size

We look at businesses generating a minimum EBITDA of $500,000, ensuring sufficient scale, stability, and a strong foundation for long-term growth.

Sector

We focus on service and distribution businesses operating in fragmented Quebec markets. We do not exclude other sectors if the business meets our fundamental criteria.

Owner’s Role

We favour businesses whose operations do not rely entirely on the current owner and where an orderly transition is possible.

Location

We prioritize businesses based in Quebec, allowing for close collaboration, a strong understanding of the local market, and long-term operational involvement.
