KBS Corporate Reviews 

KBS have been extremely helpful helping me find a business to acquire. Lile Ashley in particular has been extremely responsive and engaged in helping me find opportunities and adjusting to my preferences.

KBS have been great in trying to find me a business, in particular Mari Stafford has made my search a lot easier. Mari always gets back to me regarding any queries and accommodates my different time zone.

I instructed KBS at the beginning of January to sell my business and was assigned Associate Director Fabio Rambelli as my main contact. He has been fantastic on this journey and I could not recommend his skills highly enough! A first class guy who's services and persona I would highly recommend to anyone looking to sell their business.

Constant calling despite asking them not to. When I ask them to stop calling, they get aggressive asking 'why?' and keep on pushing... they simply won't take no for an answer. I have blocked their number and they create a new one...

Sean Clarkson has been great and very helpful and thanks alot for your help! Alexander

Whilst making an enquiry regarding a Business acquisition through KBS Corporate I had a call with Elliot Wilkes who proved to be extremely helpful.
I'm really grateful for his advice and assistance and look forward to hopefully securing the Business.

I reached out to KBS for buying opportunities in a niche sector. Elliot Wilkes was able to take my criteria and provide an interesting option that was downstream of what I was initially thinking of but would be a great addition to the businesses I am targeting. Highly recommended.

KBS are the UK's leading advisors/brokers to SMEs - and for good reason.
They have an unrivalled network of contacts and investors who they can utilise to find the right investor for a business.
Our experience with them was faultless.
They learned about our company and requirements and then found an investor who shared our vision for the future of our business.
During the transaction the team at KBS worked night and day on our behalf - in particular Guy Haynes our Corporate Director - to enable the best possible result in a very short time frame.
We were also able to benefit from 'in-house' legal and tax advisors who worked together with KBS effectively and efficiently.
I cannot recommend more highly.

Oliver of KBS brokered the sale of a mutual client's business and was profesional, pro-active, helpful and supportive throughout the process.

Excellent service from the Research Team. They kept us well informed and were very supportive throughout the process.

Found a blue chip buyer for our mutual client and got the deal over the line.

Mari Stafford is excellent - she is very responsive, helps us to find the right opportunities and diligent in her execution. Highly recommend partnering with her

I recently had the pleasure of working with Jack Tyldsley at KBS Corporate on a business acquisition. Jack was incredibly professional, responsive, and supportive throughout the entire process. He consistently went above and beyond to ensure smooth communication, promptly addressing my queries and facilitating productive calls with prospective sellers. His efforts made rapport-building seamless and helped move discussions forward efficiently.

I highly recommend Jack and KBS Corporate to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and dedicated broker in the M&A space.

Having reached retirement age, we were trying to find as neat an exit as possible from our company for all concerned – for ourselves, for our staff and for our clients, having established an excellent reputation over 20 years of trading. The business has been built on the strength of our relationships with our loyal customers and it was about achieving an exit that would work. The level of service we got from KBS was outstanding, worth every penny. KBS did a brilliant job – Will Griffiths is a legend and he guided us through it. As a company, KBS did us proud. I couldn’t conceive a more suitable and acceptable way of exiting the business. It was a good offer and I’m really happy with the way it’s worked out.

It's early days yet, although been dragged out a bit by myself getting information across to KBS for a prospective sale of my business. But they have been patient and professional with little nudges to get me moving. The problem with being a small business owner, and being tied up in the middle of day to day running of the company, it restricts my time to focus on other things. But thanks to Kirsty Poynton, she has produced all the sales teasers and documents in such a professional way, I want to buy the company myself!!! We are now ready to go to market, and I'm looking forward to working with the sales executives to get a deal done.

We recently worked with KBS to support the sale of our recruitment business, and we’re very pleased with the service we received. From start to finish, the process was thorough and well-managed. The team demonstrated strong knowledge and experience in business sales, which gave us confidence throughout what can be a complex and lengthy process.

We were very keen to find a buyer that was a good match for our business – a company who understood the recruitment sector and would continue to build on our success. KBS really listened to what mattered to us and provided a selection of prospective buyers who aligned well with our goals and values.

The deal took around 12 months to complete, and during that time, the support we received was consistent and professional. Our KBS representative, Fabio, was particularly impressive – calm, patient, knowledgeable, and always approachable. He made what could have been a stressful experience much easier to navigate.

We would happily recommend KBS to anyone considering selling their business.

I’ve worked with Charles Needham and Matthew Chadaway of KBS over a number of months.
Both have demonstrated the highest level of professionalism and enthusiasm throughout.
It’s been a pleasure to work with them both.

Despite the mixed reviews regarding KBS, my experience with Matthew Chadaway in particular has been nothing short of outstanding. Throughout the process, he has been highly professional, proactive, and dedicated to keeping things on track.

Matthew has consistently been swift to respond, ensuring that any queries or concerns are addressed promptly. His commitment to progressing deals efficiently has been invaluable, demonstrating a clear focus on achieving the best possible outcomes.

If you’re working with KBS, I highly recommend Matthew Chadaway as a broker who truly delivers!

KBS have been fully supportive throughout the process, keeping me up to date on a regular basis. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable, and are always happy to help with any queries.

They got back quick and efficiently, and were more than helpful! Jasmine and Tom both were very polite and kind, and I would recommend to everyone!
