Succession planning
Succession planning is the process of identifying and developing new leaders who can replace old leaders when they leave, retire, or pass on. Succession planning is a critical component of any business and should always be considered in any strategic planning review. The majority of retailing stores in BC are family owned and operated. Multi-unit retail store owners often want family members to take over the business and decide the long-term plans for the company.
Thrive advisors work with families to review the current retail store holdings, evaluate the businesses and in some cases, provide options for acquisitions or mergers if family members don’t foresee the business continuing. We do the time-consuming, detailed work of store valuations, growth reviews and strategic planning to help you in your succession planning process.
We help family-owned businesses put sound succession plans in place. Our work provides you peace of mind and confidence that your legacy will be handled with great care.
