NEW OFFER FOR PARTIES INTERESTED IN BUSINESS HANDOVERS IN SPECIALIST TRADE

Workshop on the topic of company succession – Expert discussions for prospective buyers

The average age of bike retailers keeps rising. Many shop owners are raising the question: Who will take over my business in the future and what do I need to consider? With this as the starting point, EUROBIKE, taking place on the trade fair grounds in Frankfurt from June 21 to 25, will offer the new "Sellers' Workshop" format for potential sellers and the "Buyers' Chat" for potential buyers for the first time – in cooperation with the consulting company 53-ELF. The main aspects of succession and acquisition are examined in various modules.
Ulf Blume, owner of 53-ELF, could be won as a speaker for both formats.

Sellers' Workshop 

The topics that will be discussed in depth range from the initial situation of the business, the prerequisites for the sale, all the way to the determination of the business value and contract negotiations. The offer is aimed exclusively at potential sellers who are looking for a successor. Essential aspects of succession and/or business sales are to be reviewed in a format consisting of a presentation and open discussion.

Buyers' Chat

The Buyers' Chat, on the other hand, is aimed at interested parties who are thinking of acquiring a bycicle shop.
The format is designed for potential buyers of bicycle stores - from within the industry or from other industries.  
In 45-minute time slots, a personal conversation with the expert will give interested parties an opportunity to get a profound picture of the options for a takeover and to clarify questions about the acquisition process itself.
