Hi everyone
I thought I'd let you know that I recently closed the second acquisition for Viso Logistics, my roll-up of specialised logistics companies in the UK.

LTM EBITDA: $300m (£250k)
Valuation: 2.1x EBITDA
Has some customer concentration but overall I feel it's a good deal and solid business.

If it's useful to anyone here, I'd be happy to share my experience of this deal in more detail - feel free to email me at redacted

Acquisition #1 EBITDA has now doubled since we bought it 2 years ago and seller deferred consideration fully paid.

All self funded to date (with leverage). For acquisition #3 we'll be looking at a larger deal ($1-3m EBITDA). I'd be interested in setting up an intro call with any equity investors who might want to dig deeper and perhaps join the journey in the future. If that's you, feel free to email me redacted :)

Congrats Alex! I'm on a roll up journey in a different industry (dental) in Australia and happy to connect any time for shared learnings and war stories!

Congrats Alexi! I'm actually looking to do a roll up in Mexico in some related industries. Looking for the first acquisition still.
