A long-term partner for the businesses that keep America running

We buy great businesses and run them for the long haul.

Ascend Group is a holding company dedicated to the success of family and founder-owned businesses. We buy companies and partner with the people who built them. The foundation you've laid remains and we build from there.

I. Sectors

Essential services customers depend on.

SECTORS WE KNOW AND LIKE
II. Fit

The kind of business that fits.

If your business fits, we can move fast. If it doesn't, we'll be upfront.

01

An owner ready for a change

Retirement, handing it to the next person, or a partner to take some weight off.

02

Repeat customers

Work that comes back. Service contracts, routes, or annual inspections.

03

Anywhere in America

Anywhere in the U.S., ideally with room to grow nearby.

04

A real track record

Years in business, customers who stay, a dedicated team, and consistent profits with earnings that hold steady year to year.

05

Room to grow

A clear next step: more trucks or teams, nearby towns worth serving, another service customers keep asking for, or a good local shop we could buy and bring in.

III. Process

From the first call through the closing and beyond.

01

We get to know each other

Discussions this important shouldn't happen over email. If there's mutual interest following an initial call, we'd like to schedule a site visit to see your shop, meet your team, and get to know you. We want to like and trust who we are dealing with, and you should expect the same.

02

Make a deal that works

We can be flexible and creative to put forward a deal that meets your goals and timeline, whether that's a near-term retirement, a multi-year transition, or staying on as an owner alongside us.

03

Grow it from there

We roll up our sleeves and get to work, taking what we can off your plate so you and your team can focus on the parts of the business you enjoy most.
