Business Transition
Testimonials
GAI helped us work through a myriad of issues from accounting, legal, small business, banking and just making us feel comfortable with Pensacola and everything it has to offer. With every issue that arose that threatened the transaction, they offered a constructive path to resolution. I would not hesitate to buy another business that was brokered by GAI.
We absolutely loved working with Lawrence and his amazing team at GAI. He did an incredible job of advising and offering support through the whole process of buying our new business. We tried working with several other brokers but went with GAI because of their quality and professionalism. I am highly satisfied and would recommend them to anyone.
Things are going well with the transition of ownership. I appreciate everything you did to help my brother and I sell our business. As I go off into the sunset, I have a good taste in my mouth about Gibson and Associates. Anyone who wants to sell a business needs to go to Gibson and Associates. Thank you for everything.
