We love acquiring well-grounded businesses and helping them fulfill their potential. And we’re respectful of how they reflect the legacy of their previous owners. Our goal is not to “buy, squeeze, and flip”, it’s to “buy, hold and grow.” Our philosophy can be summarized in 10 words:
Honour the legacy, Build on the foundation, Fulfill the potential

A Commitment to Genuine Partnership
When we acquire a company, we’re investing in people, not just earnings potential. It’s in our collective interest that we create a trusting relationship with you and your team. That trust will enable us to leverage the complementary knowledge and expertise we bring together and provide your business with the best possible opportunity for future success.
We’ll roll up our sleeves and work to understand the legacy and foundation that underlie the business you’ve built. We’ll ask lots of questions, tapping into the experience and expertise of your people and striving to learn the ins and outs of your business – what the nuances are, and what makes it unique. Through open communications and an intense desire to learn, we’ll lay the groundwork for a successful engagement.
Adapting our Approach
We recognize that once we acquire a business, the integration phase is critical. This is where the game can be won or lost. Our first task is not to create change but to ensure the continuity of what is essential to your team and your customers. We’ll make sure to avoid the pitfalls that so often occur when companies are acquired.
Then, working together, we’ll determine how best to adapt and apply Braidy’s business optimization processes to start to evolve your business. It’s not about forcing your business into our approach; it’s about tailoring our approach so that it works for your business.
The Braidy Management System
Once a stable integration has been achieved, we’re ready to implement the Braidy Management System. Working with your team, we will identify opportunities for improvement and growth. We will institute the required processes – operational, administrative, business development and management processes – that will enable the business to flourish. And we’ll provide the ongoing advisory and support services that your team needs.
We may also work with your team to institute a strategic management process – a systematic way to assess the ever-changing business environment and to identify and execute the strategic initiatives necessary to stay strong well into the future.
You’ve entrusted your business to us. Our goal is to provide you with the peace of mind in knowing that your business is in capable hands, is fulfilling its potential, and is a company that everyone can be proud of.
Modernizing Your Business, Honouring Its Foundations
We work to ensure your company stays competitive with fresh strategies, technology upgrades, and digital transformation while building on the strengths at the heart of your business.
Committed to
Genuine Partnership
Human connection drives success. When we acquire a company, we’re investing in people, not just earning potential. Our approach to partnership focuses on creating a trusting relationship with you and your team. We work side-by-side with your executives to establish strategies informed by their expertise and experience to bring your business into the future.
