Confidential National Engineering Recruiting Firm
$ 750,000
This confidential national recruiting firm specializes in engineering and power delivery search services and supports many of the leading engineering, EPC, and consulting firms across the country. The business is operated by an experienced recruiting team with more than 40 years of combined expertise, all of whom are committed to remaining with the company after the sale. Ownership is also willing to stay on in a meaningful capacity to support transition planning, client continuity, and operational stability. The opportunity is priced at $750,000, reflecting the firm’s three-year weighted SDE of $185,000 and its strong positioning within the niche power delivery sector. To support a smooth transition and align incentives, the seller is offering a $350,000 seller note at 6 percent along with a performance-based component of up to $700,000 tied to revenue and placement activity after closing. When fully achieved, the total consideration available to the seller equals $1,800,000. The structure is designed to ensure a smooth transition, protect ongoing work, and give the buyer a clear runway to capture the firm’s long-term earning power while keeping all key recruiters and ownership engaged during integration. Growth opportunities include expanding into adjacent engineering verticals and adding recruiters to increase search capacity at minimal incremental cost. Digital outreach, brand visibility, and targeted business development can increase retained-search acquisition and average engagement value. Additional service lines (including leadership consulting, onboarding support, and strategic hiring advisory), offer incremental revenue with little added overhead. The fully remote operating model also enables geographic expansion and platform integration. https://tworld.com/locations/Illinois/schaumburg/listings/Confidential-National-Engineering-Recruiting-Firm

Iconic Creative Brand with Decades of Consumer Loyalty
$ 5,080,000

With a reputation for creativity, quality, and consumer loyalty, the brand represents a rare opportunity to acquire a scalable intellectual property platform in a protected niche. Significant growth opportunities exist through the reactivation of dormant product lines and the expansion of direct-to-consumer and eCommerce channels. Additional upside can be achieved by strengthening international licensing partnerships and entering new geographic markets. Strategic collaborations, seasonal launches, and co-branded initiatives also present compelling opportunities to broaden consumer reach, deepen market penetration, and enhance recurring royalty income. https://tworld.com/locations/Illinois/schaumburg/listings/Iconic-Creative-Brand-with-Decades-of-Consumer-Loyalty

Tennessee
21-Year Established Full-Service Caterer, Loyal Repeat Clients
$ 269,000
This is a 21-year-old, full-service off-premise catering company serving corporate and social clients throughout the Nashville/Middle Tennessee area. The business plans and executes events end-to-end — menu design, food and beverage production, event staffing, bartending for events serving alcohol, and coordination of rentals and florals — covering everything from simple drop-off catering to fully staffed, white-glove events. Revenue splits roughly 50% food and beverage, 45% staffing/service, and 5% other, giving the business multiple income streams rather than relying on food sales alone. The client base skews toward professionals and decision-makers with discretionary budget — corporate event planners and individuals planning weddings and private celebrations — built primarily through repeat business, referrals, and word of mouth rather than paid advertising. The company operates from a lean, off-premise commercial kitchen (no dine-in overhead), is run by a small core team (2 full-time, 10 part-time staff, plus a pool of trusted on-call contractors), and has stayed profitable through two major economic downturns. The sale includes all furniture, fixtures, and equipment, trained staff willing to stay on through the transition, and a seller open to a training period and ongoing consulting support post-close — a turnkey opportunity for a buyer to step into an established, cash-flowing operation. There's clear runway for a buyer ready to give this business full-time attention — something the current owners haven't been able to do since their separate product line started pulling focus. Weddings stand out as the single biggest opportunity: ownership has identified this segment as relatively insulated from the corporate budget tightening that can affect catering spend, since people keep getting married regardless of the economy. The business has barely scratched this market despite strong word-of-mouth. Marketing is another underdeveloped lever — the company currently relies almost entirely on social media and referrals from past events, with no paid marketing or dedicated sales effort. A buyer investing even modestly in lead generation, venue and vendor partnerships, or targeted advertising could plausibly grow bookings without changing the operating model at all. There's also room to shift revenue mix toward higher-margin offerings — full-service staffing, bartending, and event coordination currently represent a meaningful but still-minority share of revenue relative to food and beverage, and these services tend to carry better margins than straight drop-off catering. On the demand side, the broader event catering market is trending toward distinctive, highly visual experiences, which plays well to this company's reputation for scratch-made, creative menus. Early-2026 financials already show this momentum building, with revenue and earnings both well ahead of prior-year pace — a buyer stepping in now would be building on an upswing, not starting from flat. https://tworld.com/locations/Tennessee/murfreesboro/listings/21-Year-Established-Full-Service-Caterer-Loyal-Repeat-Clients
