About ABCO International 

ABCO INTERNATIONAL specialises in the valuation and sale of businesses, operating across a wide range of industries in South Africa and abroad. Situated in Johannesburg South Africa, we utilize a wealth of knowledge and expertise in bringing together a host of national and international buyers and sellers.

Through a thorough understanding of the markets we operate in, we have earned a reputation for effectiveness, confidentiality and professionalism. We are committed to providing our clients with the finest business brokerage service available with readily available consultants who take their obligations seriously and deliver on their promises.

Our mission is to expedite the selling process, saving you the frustration of dealing with the details. We list businesses with proven track records. Potential buyers are also required to meet certain standards, being screened before any business is disclosed to them. Our network of associates helps to ensure the quickest possible sale of your business. For example, collaboration with investment bankers and other financiers begins to pre-qualify prospective buyers for financing as soon as an inquiry is initiated.

Aware that confidentiality is of paramount importance and that public knowledge of a potential sale can have a devastating effect on the value of a company, we assure you that your business purchase or sale information will be handled by experts in the most highly confidential and professional manner.

To sell your business at the highest acceptable premium the market will bear, ABCO provides a sophisticated business valuation service, helping prevent our clients from leaving money on the closing table that should be theirs.
