I am delighted that Schlummersack has become a member of empact brands. Among several options we felt very comfortable with empact as they understand our business and saw the potential of our brand within their group. I would like to thank Benchmark International for identifying this buyer and their dedicated work and support throughout the transaction process.

We are very pleased with the outcome of this transaction. From the first meeting we were convinced of the cultural fit and the synergy potential. We would like to thank Benchmark International for introducing this great opportunity to us.

Benchmark International’s hands-on approach during all aspects of the transaction process was fundamental in our successful deal closing. Tyrus O’Neill and his team did an outstanding job of putting together a comprehensive, attractive presentation of Skillets, lined us up with first rate legal counsel, and very quickly identified a motivated buyer within two weeks of initial marketing. Overall, RCP is an ideal candidate in terms of corporate culture and values. We appreciate our many loyal Naples guests and look forward to offering the same hospitality and culinary excellence they have come to know as we move forward in this exciting chapter.

President and Officer of Latrobe Foundry Machine & Supply Co., Ted Steiner, emphasized, "Latrobe Foundry and Genesys share not only common markets and hardware product lines but also deep-rooted manufacturing expertise and values. This alignment will enable us to offer a more comprehensive range of products and elevate our customer service levels. The team at Benchmark International played a crucial role in guiding us towards a successful sale."

When Benchmark International reached out to me, they were the only M&A firm of many who had done a deep dive on my company and truly understood our strategic value prior to the first call. Benchmark was an invaluable asset in posturing my company’s strategic value for sale. Their responsiveness and thoughtful guidance led to a terrific outcome for me selling Metaphase. Beyond the transaction itself, every person I dealt with at Benchmark International was an A-team player and as a company, demonstrated exemplar integrity. I could not have envisioned a better M&A partner. Thanks Benchmark International!
