I am currently representing a qualified investor seeking a strategic business acquisition in the Auckland region. My client is a seasoned professional looking to relocate to New Zealand and is specifically seeking an established business that qualifies for the Business Investor Visa pathway.
We are looking for a smooth transition of ownership where the current legacy and local staff are respected and maintained.
What We Are Looking For;
To meet my client’s operational goals and New Zealand’s residency requirements, the business should ideally feature:
– Proven Track Record: At least 5 years of continuous, profitable trading.
– Strong Team: A stable, established workforce with at least 5 full-time employees (excluding Working Owners & Working Holiday Visa Employees).
– Auckland Based: Core operations located within the Auckland greater area.
– Growth Potential: A solid foundation that would benefit from fresh international perspectives or expansion capital.
Eligibility & Compliance
To ensure a successful visa application for my client, we are strictly focusing on eligible industries. We are not interested in sectors prohibited by the Business Investment Visa guidelines, including:
– Small-scale Retail (Dairies, $2/Discount shops).
– Fast-food or Takeaway outlets.
– Labor-hire or Recruitment agencies.
– Passive Property Investment or Land Banking.
– Professional & Confidential
– As a licensed business broker, I manage the entire process with the highest level of discretion. My client is vetted, motivated, and ready to engage in due diligence for the right opportunity.
If you are a business owner considering an exit strategy or a succession plan, let’s have a confidential conversation.
