Lloyds Corporate Brokers played a key role in facilitating this sale, able to match the vendor with the buyer because of its sector knowledge underpinned by its extensive networks and recent marketing activities. Lloyds initiated the sales process with a business appraisal, facilitating introductory meetings between the buyer and the vendor and working with the vendor and the advisors through all aspects of the sale process, including deal structuring and negotiation of sale terms. 

The sale was conducted by Lloyds’ NSW Director Karen Dado, who worked closely with the vendor and its advisers to achieve a successful result for both vendor and buyer.  

“Karen and Lloyds worked very hard on the investment deal through what turned out to be a tumultuous time for all business due to Covid 19. Rhinoplay managed Covid 19 very successfully maintaining EBITDA throughout 2020 and Lloyds stuck with the deal showing determination to complete the process creating a very successful result”… Rhinoplay vendor, Ryan Gillatt.

More about Lloyds’ Corporate Brokers

With 38 years’ experience under its belt,  Lloyds Corporate Brokers has pioneered an effective model of business brokerage, managing a small number of selected assignments at any one time, focusing on each one until it's sold. 

Each broker is allocated a small number of assignments (up to six) so they can fully familiarise themselves with each one, enabling them to present each business in the best possible way. Typically, a broker will not take new assignments until one has been sold. 

The result is that each business is handled with the care and attention required to secure the best possible price. Confidentiality is guaranteed.
