Why a non-auction process

Broad auctions put a business in front of many parties at once. A discreet, direct process limits who knows, which can help protect staff morale, customer relationships and value while a sale is explored.

We handle confidential divestments of non-core assets this way: business details are exchanged under a mutual NDA and your submission goes to our investment desk only.

What we look for in a divestment

  • Revenue benchmarkAnnual recurring revenue of KES 100M–250M with stable historical earnings.
  • Operating profitabilityPositive EBITDA, or a clear near-term path to unit-level profitability and cash flow.
  • Ownership structureFull buyouts, majority control positions (51%+) or structured owner transitions.

Larger businesses can still submit. Each opportunity is judged on its own merits.
