Benchmark International had the winning combination of people that made our whole process go very smooth. All the people that helped us from the very beginning stages to the business evaluation the markers and the final and deal associates all knew their job very well. We were fortunate to have some offers right after we went out to the market so we are able to make a decision and close on our small family owned business. We were previously on the market with another equity firm for a couple of years with basically no results benchmark really knows what they’re doing and I highly recommend them.

“This is a monumental step for our firm. I am deeply grateful to Benchmark International for their invaluable counsel throughout this process; Their partnership was instrumental in navigating this successful transition. As we move into this next chapter with Stonewall Studios, I am energized to step away from the administrative demands of ownership and back to the drafting table as a Principal Architect, dedicated to the projects and community we serve.”

“We’re tremendously excited to have partnered with Clark Elliot via our acquisition of Clark Crane. As a Tennessee-based business, Clark gives us the opportunity to expand our footprint in our home state. Clark Crane is a trusted name in the Southeast and an incredible asset to our family of brands. We want to thank Benchmark International and Matthew Kekelis for facilitating this deal.”

This is an exciting time for the Deluxe family. We have always prided ourselves on our technical expertise and the quality of service our customers have come to love and expect.” Larry added, "Partnering with the folks at Haller and HomeX Services Group allows us to expand that level of service and create more opportunities for our team members. I know Kenny and the Haller team well and am proud to partner with a best-in-class organization like Haller. I am looking forward to seeing our growth in PA accelerate in 2024 and beyond.

I was previously engaged with another brokerage firm and later decided to engage Benchmark International for their extensive market reach and successful track record. I found that Benchmark International immediately understood the excavation drilling market and was able to introduce numerous buyers into the mix. Not only did the Benchmark International team bring forth and negotiate an offer that satisfied my expectations but also a buyer that I know will facilitate the continued growth of Ground Hog Foundation Drilling for many years to come. I highly recommend using Benchmark International for your M&A needs.
