Leaders LLC established new specialty in the Petroleum Marketing Industry through an affiliation with industry specialist Albert L. Small.
November, 2004Leaders LLC is a merger and acquisition (M&A) firm that specializes in the discreet sale of privately owned businesses. Through our affiliation with Mr. Small, we have the industry knowledge and insight, as well as the industry relationships, to identify and attract the best buyers within the petroleum marketing industry for our clients who want to sell their businesses.
Having spent over forty years in the petroleum marketing industry, Al has acquired an unparalleled knowledge of, and personal network within, the industry. As an independent jobber, he built a successful business with over fifty outlets and a large Dealer network through a series of acquisitions and start-ups. After selling his business to Irving Oil in 1986, Al worked for the Irving family for a number of years identifying and negotiating acquisition opportunities for Irving within the petroleum marketing industry. The perspective that Al has acquired, as both a buyer and seller of privately owned businesses in the industry, provides us with a unique ability to advise our clients on the sale of their businesses.
As we are sure you are aware, the pace of acquisition activity within the petroleum marketing industry is once again picking up. Several years of slower activity have created a pent up demand from buyers. With the signs of a slow but steady economic recovery, another round of consolidation has begun. Whether you are a potential seller, buyer, or merger candidate, you should evaluate and understand all your options prior to taking action.
If you would like to arrange an initial meeting to discuss your options (on a confidential and no charge basis, of course), please contact one of us as shown on the Contact Us page. If you’d like to contact Al directly, his email address is ASmall@Leaders-LLC.com. We look forward to talking with you.
