Some Thoughts from Our Clients

“Mike Chase at Health Business Partners has been an important relationship for The Shansby Group. We value his insight, guidance, and assistance in evaluating investment opportunities in natural foods, OTC and personal care. Mike is a thought-leader in these categories and has built strong relationships with industry leaders. In 2004, HBP advised us in the acquisition of a $70 million fast-growing healthy foods company. I would recommend HBP to anyone, buyer or seller, if they are contemplating a transaction.”

Alexander S. Panos
Partner, The Shansby Group

"The HBP team has the highest integrity - they take the utmost care to ensure that each client receives the best possible service and they are conscientious in explaining and avoiding potential conflicts of interest. Over the years that we have been building our business, we have been contacted by dozens of investment bankers and business brokers offering M&A advice. None hold a candle to HBP.

The hands-on personal support that we have received from Roy Bingham, in particular, has been a major contribution to our success in identifying and closing five acquisitions during 2004. Whether you are a potential buyer or seller, I wholeheartedly recommend HBP to advise you on how to execute a good transaction."

Armand Dauplaise, President and CEO, Bio-One Corporation

"Twice now I have turned to Roy Bingham at Health Business Partners for ongoing counsel as I built my businesses. His knowledge of the nutritional supplements and natural, organic and functional foods industry coupled with his consulting, big business and entrepreneurial background immediately adds great value to my team. With Custom Nutrition Services, HBP provided very practical hands-on guidance that helped me improve overall business performance. When the time came to contemplate a sale they knew exactly how to characterize the opportunity to the right buyer and negotiated an attractive sale to drugstore.com. Now that I am building another business - The Organic Holding Company; I have immediately turned to HBP as an integral part of my team."

Jason Brown, owner and CEO of The Organic Holding Company and Organic To Go and founder and former owner and CEO of Custom Nutrition Services
 

"When selecting a firm for our acquisition search we turned to HBP because of their experience and professionalism. Their resourcefulness in identifying potential candidates, insightful analysis while screening approved targets and finally their sensitive diligence as intermediaries were all instrumental in our successful transactions. They are a firm with very high ethical standards and I would strongly recommend them to anyone seeking professional expertise in our industry."

Norman Cloutier, Managing Director of Thorn Ledge Investments, Chairman of Fairfield Farm Kitchens and former Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of United Natural Foods, Inc.
 

"Health Business Partners performed a thorough, comprehensive review to understand Zand's needs and served as both a financial and strategic advisor to us. Their industry network and acquisition know-how were invaluable to finding us the right partner. HBP recognized and marketed our true brand value. Their advice, guidance and professionalism was extraordinary."

Caryn Ellison, CEO of McZand Herbal, Inc.
 

"Health Business Partners brought a level of professionalism and thoroughness to the sale process that gave us great confidence in an attractive conclusion. I would not hesitate to recommend them to others seeking advice."

David Kulow, President, Oakmont Laboratories
 


"We were able to continue to operate our business, confident that Health Business Partners was acting energetically and thoroughly to protect our best interests. Ultimately, we are very pleased with the outcome and our new partners. As I have now learned, the process of selling your company can be stressful and exhausting. It was a tremendous relief to me and my team to be able to entrust so much of the process to the professionals at Health Business Partners."

Peggy Brevoort, President & CEO, East Earth Herb, Inc.
