Memphis's M&A market is defined by its status as America's logistics capital, home to FedEx's global hub and one of the nation's busiest cargo airports and inland ports. This logistics infrastructure has spawned hundreds of warehousing, freight brokerage, and third-party logistics companies in the $2M-$30M range that are prime acquisition targets. Beyond logistics, Memphis drives deal activity in healthcare (St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, Methodist Le Bonheur), food and agriculture, and a growing music and entertainment services sector.
Memphis offers strong deal flow in logistics and distribution, with the FedEx ecosystem creating a continuous pipeline of founder-owned businesses reaching acquisition scale. Healthcare deals are competitive due to institutional buyer interest, but logistics and industrial businesses trade at reasonable multiples with predictable cash flows.
Memphis's logistics infrastructure is a moat: acquiring a distribution or freight business here means access to FedEx's global hub, four Class I railroads, and America's fourth-largest inland port, creating operational advantages that are nearly impossible to replicate. Tennessee's lack of state income tax on wages adds immediate bottom-line value to acquisitions.
Tennessee enforces non-compete agreements under a reasonableness analysis and recently enacted the Tennessee Lawful Employment Act requiring E-Verify compliance, which acquirers must factor into workforce due diligence; the state has no bulk sales act, but Tennessee's franchise and excise tax obligations transfer with going-concern business sales and require careful clearance.
A structured, methodical approach to business exit & sell-side law
We assess your corporate records, contracts, and legal standing to identify issues that could reduce your sale price or delay closing, and help you fix them before going to market.
We work with you and your advisors to define your priorities, whether that is maximizing cash at close, minimizing post-closing risk, retaining key terms, or achieving a clean break.
We analyze incoming offers and negotiate letter of intent terms that set you up for a successful transaction, including purchase price structure, exclusivity, and closing conditions.
Managing Partner Alex Lubyansky personally negotiates the definitive purchase agreement, fighting for seller-favorable terms on reps and warranties, indemnification, escrow, and closing mechanics.
We manage the closing process, coordinate with all parties, and handle transition services agreements and non-compete terms so you can exit on your terms.
