About Carolina Investment Brokers
We leverage our extensive experience and passion for business to help you navigate selling, buying, or growing your business venture.
Navigating a business transition is no small feat, and it can be a bumpy ride if you don’t have the right broker and resources at your disposal. At Carolina Investment Brokers, we help current and prospective business owners successfully manage the business transition process. Whether it’s your first time or you’ve been buying and selling companies for years, we want to work with you.
Our team was founded in 2002 by Howard Molton, and through the years, we’ve helped hundreds of business owners and families on their journey to sell, buy, or improve a business. With us, sellers receive top dollar through our confidential process and vast network of serious, qualified buyers. We also help individuals take ownership of their future through buying a business, and we will work closely with you to find an option that aligns with your goals. Our extensive business solutions include comprehensive valuations as well as consulting on mergers, acquisitions, loss control, and internal/external relations.
At our firm, we deeply believe in the potential of every business, regardless of its size. We work with companies of all scales, from small startups to established enterprises. Both our proven track record and expertise make us the ideal partner to help you realize the full potential of your business. When you partner with us, you’re not getting some guy in a suit working from a high-rise thousands of miles away and who has no idea what you need to succeed. Our founder started as a small business owner himself, and he’s spent the last 20 years leveraging his experience and skill at navigating business transitions to help other local business owners succeed.
Our experienced local business brokers serve clients throughout North and South Carolina. If you’re ready to take control and partner with a skilled business broker who will put your needs and goals first, contact us today to get started!
