Search Businesses

The pursuit of businesses that align with our criteria is an ongoing process requiring considerable focus, time, and energy. The dynamic nature of forming partnerships with successful businesses necessitates our flexibility and adaptability to the economic landscape.

Community outreach and your referrals are vital in identifying businesses in need of our assistance. Our board of advisors, composed of business owners and leaders, is intricately connected to their respective communities. When we learn of a business facing ownership retirement, in need of modernization, and has a significant community impact, we are compelled to act promptly. Numerous local businesses could continue to serve as community cornerstones with fresh leadership, creative insights, and new capital.

We collaborate with business brokers statewide to monitor businesses up for sale. Owners eager to sell often have compelling reasons, and we aim to support them while preserving the local jobs and economic contributions of their businesses.

We are interested in businesses of all types and sizes that contribute positively to their communities. If our expertise does not match a particular business's needs, we likely know and can access the right people throughout Louisiana. We prioritize businesses that:

  • Have been established for at least 10 years and significantly impact their community.
  • Employ a minimum of 5 staff members, ideally all local.
  • Have maintained profitability over the past three years, with a minimum of $200,000 in Seller's Discretionary Earnings.
