What We Buy

Industry Focus &
Acquisition Criteria.

We are disciplined, sector-focused buyers. Understanding where we focus — and what we look for — helps owners quickly determine whether CMBB is the right conversation to have.

Industry Focus

Three Sectors. Deep Expertise.

We concentrate on three industries where we have operational knowledge, existing relationships, and a clear acquisition thesis. This focus means faster decisions and more credible conversations.

Manufacturing

Precision, Metal & Industrial

We acquire owner-operated manufacturers across a broad range of sub-sectors — precision machining, metal fabrication, plastics, packaging, industrial equipment, and contract manufacturing. We value businesses built on skilled workforces, long-standing customer relationships, and proprietary processes.

Precision machining & CNC
Metal fabrication & welding
Plastics & injection moulding
Packaging & converting
Industrial equipment & assembly
Contract manufacturing

Security

Physical & Electronic Security

From alarm monitoring and access control to fire protection and guard services, we understand the recurring-revenue dynamics and regulatory landscape of the security industry. We are experienced buyers who respect the customer relationships and technician teams that make these businesses run.

Alarm monitoring & response
Access control systems
Fire protection & suppression
CCTV & video surveillance
Integrated security solutions

Healthcare

Healthcare Services & Allied Health

We look at owner-operated healthcare businesses where the founder's exit creates a succession challenge. This includes medical clinics, diagnostic services, rehabilitation, home care, and allied health practices with stable patient volumes and defensible referral networks.

Diagnostic & imaging centres
Physiotherapy & rehabilitation

Acquisition Criteria

What We Look For in a Business.

Our criteria are straightforward. If your business fits, we can move quickly — no lengthy qualification processes, no intermediaries.

Privately Owned

We acquire privately held companies — not subsidiaries, not divisions of public corporations. We are specifically looking for businesses where the owner is the decision-maker and where a direct conversation is possible.

Founder-Led

The businesses we target are built and run by their founders or a small ownership group. We understand the personal dimension of these transactions and approach every conversation with the discretion and respect that a founder's life work deserves.

EBITDA Positive

We acquire profitable, cash-generating businesses. We do not invest in turnarounds or pre-revenue companies. A track record of consistent earnings is the foundation of a fair valuation and a smooth transition.

Geography

Our primary markets are Canada (with a focus on Ontario) and the United States — particularly Texas and Florida. We will also consider opportunities in other US states and Canadian provinces where the business profile is a strong fit.
