Why owners choose A. George

A sale is a singular event in the life of a business. We built a firm around doing that one thing carefully, for one industry.

  • One sector, completely

    We only advise facility management businesses. We know how buyers underwrite contract density, labor models and customer concentration, and we position you accordingly.

  • A principal on every mandate

    The person you meet is the person who runs your process. No hand-offs to junior teams after the engagement letter is signed.

  • Deliberately few engagements

    We accept a limited number of mandates each year so every client receives undivided senior attention through close.

  • Direct access to buyers

    Established relationships with private equity sponsors, strategic acquirers and family offices actively building in the space.

Portrait of Alex George, Founder

“Great outcomes are rarely the result of a singular effort. I believe that marginal improvements across all aspects of a process are what produce a material advantage. I apply this philosophy from preparation and positioning to execution and relationships.”
