Consumer

The seasoned professionals at GMB have successfully closed M&A transactions and financings in excess of $2 billion for companies in Consumer industries. Additionally, we have completed numerous strategic advisory engagements to help Consumer companies clarify long-term goals and enhance their success. We are particularly experienced in the following sub-sectors:

Consumer Products
Whether specializing in short-lived seasonal products or established commodity goods, consumer products companies face the challenges of brand awareness and volatile consumer spending. We apply our proven, efficient process when advising these companies to optimize valuation, timing of a sale, proceeds from financings and strategic financial planning.

Consumer Services
Delivering exceptional quality at the point of service requires substantial investment in employee training programs and systems. We effectively identify and communicate the value of the main assets of consumer services companies – their people and processes – to optimize transaction results.

Sports & Recreation
With our headquarters in Colorado, we are located in the heart of the sports & recreation industry. We advise service companies, such as ski resorts and rental companies, and product companies, such as gear manufacturers. Our experience includes advising on numerous M&A transactions, financings and complicated strategic advisory engagements involving both public agencies and private companies.

Food & Beverage
Companies in the food & beverage industry must meet the ever-changing tastes of consumers in an extremely competitive marketplace. We have successfully advised a wide variety of food & beverage companies, ranging from meat packers to gourmet grocers to restaurants. Additionally, we apply years experience as owners, operators and advisors to guide each client through a successful transaction.

We proactively build and maintain relationships with investors targeting these Consumer sub-sectors. Our proprietary relationships with key strategic acquirers, private equity funds and lenders ensure each and every transaction is exposed to the right target market.
