Our Focus
Good businesses
at the right moment.
We acquire small businesses across industries. Geography is not a constraint — if the business has sound fundamentals and the owner is serious about selling, we want to hear about it.

Businesses with $500K–$5M in annual revenue
Owners seeking a clean exit, not a slow wind-down
What We Look For
Three things that matter most.
01
Stable Revenue
A consistent track record — ideally three or more years of predictable cash flow. The business does not need to be growing fast. It needs to be reliable.
02
Clear Operations
Processes that exist beyond the owner. A business that can run — or quickly learn to run — without the founder in every decision.
03
Organizable Data
We are not deterred by messy systems. We look for businesses where better information infrastructure can unlock meaningful operational value.
How It Works
A straightforward path
from first call to close.
01
Initial Conversation
A confidential call to understand your business and what you're looking for. No obligation, no pressure — just a direct conversation.
02
Review & Diligence
We move quickly and stay focused. Our process is structured but non-invasive — no endless data requests or drawn-out site visits.
03
Close
Clear terms, direct communication, and a clean handoff on a timeline that works for you. We do not string sellers along.
Why Vera Capital
No committee.
No delays.
Vera Capital is a direct buyer. There is no investment committee to present to, no board approval required, and no process that drags on for months.
When we are interested, we move. Sellers work directly with the decision-maker from the first conversation to close — faster answers, clearer terms, and fewer surprises.
