More than 1,400 Sunbelt business brokers across the international network coordinate in excess of 3,000 sales of small to medium sized businesses every year.

Sunbelt was founded by Ed Pendarvis in Charleston, South Carolina, USA in 1978. Ed developed a highly successful business brokerage operation and began franchising business brokerage offices under the Sunbelt banner during the mid 90’s. Sunbelt has enjoyed tremendous success as a franchise system and has grown to become the world’s largest business brokerage.

Sunbelt Business Brokers was acquired in 2006 by Merrymeeting Inc., a privately-held investment company specialising in acquiring, developing and growing franchise companies.

With the backing and resources of Merrymeeting behind it, Sunbelt has been able to maintain its leadership of the business brokerage profession by investing in extended education programmes for its Office Owners and brokers, and developing leading edge technology and information systems to enable the international office network to better serve its clients.

CEO of Sunbelt Business Brokers, John Davies, co-authored the best selling book "Selling Your Business for Dummies" on how to sell your business…

"At our first meeting I realised that I was dealing with someone with integrity. My initial fear was that brokers are only concerned about the commission they could earn when they sell a business and very little else. At our second meeting I noticed a genuine interest on your behalf and a desire to consider matters on a personal level as well. After our rather private chat I left with a feeling of comfort, knowing the selling of my business was in safe hands." - (Commercial Printer, Winchester)

"I wanted to thank you again for your diligent efforts in helping me sell my business. It was a privilege to work with a professional who was so accessible and so attentive in helping me close the deal. I greatly appreciate all you have done and wish you continued success, both personally and professionally." - (IT Services, Fleet)

"This letter is a little late but Jean and I were very impressed with your personal efforts to sell our business. You certainly found a qualified buyer very quickly and we recommend you to any business owners looking to sell their business. We will keep in touch and thank you once again for the professional manner in which you handled the sale." - (Electrical Wholesaler, Andover)
