Episode description

Mike Yarmo bought a struggling distributor & turned it into a local powerhouse in a different niche — then sold for 5x.

Key points from Mike's acquisition:

  • Owner was disengaged, retiring, and looking to sell his food distribution company
  • Company was 25 years old but had terrible margins
  • Mike & team acquired for low 7 figures, or ~2x earnings
  • Pivoted the company, grew aggressively over next few years
  • Sold 5 years later for 5x earnings, and 5x original acquisition price
