What our Clients say
They were always professional, structured and disciplined… They always had the utmost integrity without ever compromising our position… True North M&A was involved in every aspect of the final transaction and provided the necessary professionalism to close the deal when emotions were running to high, on our part.
Gerald B.
Former Owner of Liveport
During this process we realized that selling your business can be very complex, complicated and difficult without an agency like True North to assist, educate and facilitate. We highly value their expertise and the professional manner in which they conducted themselves throughout the whole process of selling our business.
B. Bates
Former Construction Wholesale Business Owner, Langley B.C.
I can genuinely say that True North exceeded my expectations and I know that my clients’ expectations were exceeded as well. What impressed me about them is their “hands on” approach, responsiveness and high level of integrity… I have no hesitation in recommending True North as a quality M&A Firm who will get the job done!
Peter J.F. Ferrari
Mergers & Acquisitions Lawyer, Vancouver B.C.
The team at True North Mergers & Acquisitions were always easily accessible, and took the time to understand our business and overall scope. They quickly received multiple offers due to their knowledge and excellent marketing… We were very pleased with their expertise and integrity.
Lance & Heather Maveety
Former Owners, Mavco Heating & Plumbing
Deciding to sell our business was hard. Selling it was harder … We got connected with Don and Rob and it felt like a relief to meet someone who would ‘hold our hands’ through the process of selling - and more than that - take care of negotiations, and put together a fantastic CIM and valuation for our business.
L. Paget
Former Medical Clinic Owner
I worked with the True North M&A team in 2019 on a challenging transaction… Their focus, tenacity and practical advice throughout the process were instrumental in keeping the transaction alive, and ultimately getting to a satisfactory closing for our mutual clients.
Peter M.
Lawyer of Farris LLP, Kelowna
Their Advisor remained calm, always believed in and sought acceptable common ground to all stakeholders and managed to resurrect what seemed to be a collapsed transaction on a number of occasions… a big factor in the overall success was Don's (and True North's) efforts and leadership.
Hani Sbaiti
Professional Business Banker/Lender
I didn’t think I was ever going to be able to retire after the first time we tried to sell the business. When I met True North, I felt much better, and I was confident that they would do what they said they would do. I was so happy with them, and everything that they did for the sale of the business and real estate. They were always there to help me, answer questions and carry the transaction forward with efficiency. I got the price that I wanted, and was able to fulfill my dreams and retire in Panama!
K. Lee
Former Owner of Silkstone Granite and Tile
True North was very knowledgeable in navigating things through a difficult time (Covid) and were a calm voice in a stressful process. It was a very long road but in the end, we got a price higher than what we were hoping for and are very satisfied.
E. Lirette
Former Owner of Bristow Instruments
I was impressed by True North M&A’s professionalism throughout the proccess and their knowledge in various aspects of the deal that I would have never thought of. We were in constant communication throughout the entire journey no matter the ups and downs. I was very satisfied with the final result of the deal and would encourage any business owners searching for the right M&A advisor to talk to the team at True North.
J. Sharanowski
Former Owner of LockBlock Ontario
Having True North in the middle of us and the buyer was very beneficial and helped immensely with pushing the deal along and keeping things on track. The confidence of having True North watching our back was priceless, our buyer even complained about how protective True North was of us - and that is a major compliment to the fact that they were truly working on our behalf. We are highly satisfied with our end outcome having received a higher value than we may have achieved had we tried this on our own.
J LaBoret
Former Owner of Compact Rentals
During this process we realized that selling your business can be very complex, complicated and difficult without a partner/Advisor like True North to assist, educate and facilitate. We highly value their expertise and the professional manner in which they conducted themselves throughout the whole process of selling our business.
B. Bates
Former Construction Wholesale Business Owner, Langley B.C.
True North took great leadership of the entire sales process, and quickly diminished my hesitation of using another M&A firm. They were masters of negotiating, very thoughtful, kind, and knowledgeable. I am very happy with the final outcome/sale price, and True North made the experience as seamless as possible, guiding me through each step with compassion, and a winning strategy during an emotional time in my life. I can’t thank True North enough!
P. Parlow
Former Owner of Evans Tedham Lumber
True North was always professional, structured and disciplined. They always had the utmost integrity without ever compromising our position. Not only did I feel that they had my best interests at heart, they were also there to have my back in any conversation or negotiation that came up. From the first introduction to the final signature, True North was there to represent me, and negotiate the highest sale price.
D. Bakker
Former Owner of a BC Tech Company
True North guided us through the process of selling our business. They collected all the pertinent information to come up with a selling price and put together a great marketing package. They also helped put together the team of outside help such as legal and accounting and the planning and facilitation of meetings with the buyers and their agents. We have already recommended True North M&A to our peers and will continue to do so.
