Why Aysan

Sector Knowledge

We only buy contracted service businesses — commercial cleaning, HVAC, facilities maintenance, soft FM. Not generalists. Not first-timers. We know what good looks like in your sector and we can price it quickly.

Founder-Friendly Process

No auctions. No junior staff doing your due diligence. Ayo speaks with you directly. We move fast, keep things confidential, and structure deals that work for the seller — including deferred consideration with built-in protections.

Operational Continuity

We are buyers, not asset strippers. Your clients stay. Your staff stay. We underwrite every acquisition on the assumption it must run without you from day one. That is our discipline — and your protection.

What makes us different from every other buyer

We combine real operating experience with institutional governance.
Our Managing Partner brings frontline operations insight; our CFO ensures financial control and disciplined execution; and our origination model blends data signals with advisor-led outreach. We move quickly, protect confidentiality, and support founder legacy.

6–12 weeks from first contact to a written offer
