What are the benefits of membership?

In addition to accessing the most active online network of business buyers, Searchfunder licenses research that is simply not cost effective for individuals. Access over 15,000 industry reports and 50,000 transaction financials. You also get monthly credits for contact information for your company sourcing campaign with the option to purchase more at drastically discounted rates. Searchfunder has pre-purchased access from these data providers in order to empower individual buyers and to help searchers level the playing field versus private equity.

Do you have deals?

While we are primarily a buy-side network, we do have hundreds of brokers that regularly post deals to the community.

Absolutely! We have the industry's largest intern job board. If you are considering a search, the first step is to help another business buyer so you can hit the ground running.

Do I need an MBA to join?

While a large number of our members come from dedicated programs at Harvard Business School, Stanford GSB, Chicago Booth, and other top programs, searching is no longer reserved for the elite. With the current abundance of dry powder in private equity, and an increasing number of business owners reaching retirement age, good deals rarely go unfunded.

Seeking contract apparel decoration and distribution (Midwest preferred)

Hello, my target is a B2B contract apparel decoration (embroidery, silkscreen, heatpress, etc) business with +$10M of revenues.

Prefer Midwest-based (optimized distribution) and few, large customers. If the business offers managed inventory and fulfillment services, even better.

I have substantial experience and a strong network in the space. Clear thesis to acquire and build.

Appreciate any referrals or suggestions.

Thank you.

It's still very much a sellers market and you're unlikely to get inbound dealflow from Brokers or Sellers on Searchfunder right now.

You can find an increasing number of brokered deals here: redacted

And you can find contact details for pretty much every company in the US/Canada here: redacted

A few people, including ^redacted‌ , have previously commented on Apparel & Embroidery and might to provide additional insights.

You are the very first person to mention Silkscreen & Heatpress and I'll be sure to hit you up the next to some needs help with one of these.
