Hi everyone, I’m pleased to announce that the Acquisitions community is transitioning to @Travis Sago Travis brings nearly 10 years of experience building and running communities across Facebook and Skool. He understands how to cultivate engagement, and deliver consistent value. Beyond operational experience, Travis brings a wide network and the ability to bring in strong operators for interviews, content, and discussions that elevate the quality of insights within the group. I’m confident the community is in capable hands and look forward to seeing it continue to grow under his leadership.

First post here—excited to connect with this group. I'm John Gatharia, founder and CEO of BulliOne Africa, a private equity firm based in Nairobi, Kenya. The short version: I'm building a fund to invest in Africa's most overlooked opportunity—profitable, cash-generating businesses that can't access the capital they need to scale. We're talking about a continent with 40+ million SMEs where less than 20% can get formal financing. The deals exist; the infrastructure to fund them doesn't. What BulliOne Africa Fund I is about: - USD 50-70M control-oriented PE fund - Lower-mid market focus (logistics, energy, financial services, consumer platforms) - Target returns: 16-37% IRR - First close: Q2 2026 Why I'm here: I'm looking to learn from this community, connect with people who've built funds or invested in frontier markets, and frankly—find LPs and advisors who see the same opportunity I do. Africa isn't a charity case. It's an arbitrage. The businesses are real. The returns are real. What's missing is disciplined capital willing to do the work. If you're curious about African PE, have questions about our approach, or just want to connect—I'm an open book. Drop a comment or DM me. Looking forward to being part of this community. —John 📍 Nairobi, Kenya 🌐 www.bullione.africa 📧 info@bullione.africa

Hello everyone I am business development and valuation strategist with over 20 years of experience working with major banks, Fannie Mae, FHA, and USDA. My background in valuation, systems, and growth strategy has given me a unique perspective on identifying hidden value and structuring businesses for scale, stability, and long-term profitability. Today, I lead an acquisitions and growth collective focused on identifying, acquiring, and scaling undervalued or underperforming businesses through strategic partnerships. Our team blends operational experience, financial creativity, and a shared vision to turn overlooked opportunities into thriving, profitable ventures. Opportunities for Partners We offer multiple ways to collaborate and participate in growth: - Short-Term Capital Partners: Collaborate on project-based initiatives or transitional growth opportunities that accelerate business turnaround and expansion. - Syndication Partners: Participate in collaborative acquisitions, rollups, or growth funds designed to create value through shared ownership and scale. - Operating Partners: Lead or manage acquired ventures and growth initiatives with performance-based incentives and long-term partnership potential. - Whether you bring capital, operational experience, or strategic connections, our model aligns all stakeholders for shared growth, transparent collaboration, and mission-driven outcomes. Current Focus Right now, I’m focused on: - Strategic rollups in service-based and trades industries - Acquisition partnerships in marketing, media, and automation sectors - Building training-centered business models that blend profitability with real-world learning and stewardship impact - If you’re an operator, capital partner, or strategic collaborator interested in alignment, I’d love to connect and explore how we can work together on upcoming projects and acquisitions.

HI All, My partners and I started down the M&A road in late 2022 and still active to this day. So far, we've successfully closed on 3 deals with 2 to 4 currently in the pipeline. Happy to connect, especially with folks in the Greater Seattle area or even the SE region of the US!
