In pursuit of a liquor shop that exceeded expectations, Tajinder Sandhu discovered Q Liquor. It was the ideal match between buyer and business. The advantageous location was undoubtedly an important factor that helped seal the deal for the enthusiastic new owner, alongside the business's well-equipped premises and profitable history.

In pursuit of a liquor shop that exceeded expectations, Tajinder Sandhu discovered Q Liquor. It was the ideal match between buyer and business. The advantageous location was undoubtedly an important factor that helped seal the deal for the enthusiastic new owner, alongside the business’s well-equipped premises and profitable history.

“I searched Trade Me high and low before discovering Q Liquor,” explained Sandhu. Sold at first sight, Sandhu immediately contacted the broker assigned to the listing, Gaurang Kaushik, and initiated the sale process.

LINK Business Brokers’ Gaurang Kaushik emerges as an experienced and respected figure who is capable of analysing P&Ls and balance sheets as well as bringing a strong entrepreneurial spirit to his job. Kaushik adds real value to every transaction and prides himself on his strong database and wealth of experience. He has strong connection to the Indian community, specifically Guajarati, and provides his clients with the comfort and knowledge that their representative is a man of high integrity and ethics.

Kaushik has refined his skills in a variety of industries, including convenience stores, superettes, franchise models, dairies, and related industries. As he delved into the complexities of Q Liquor, it became evident that his strategic acumen and industry expertise were once again in action.

“Gaurang played a pivotal role in the purchasing process,” Sandhu said. “He guided me through the financial stage and due diligence, and he also assisted me in maintaining communication with the vendor.”

Sandhu held Kaushik in high regard, applauding his communication skills and his ability to overcome challenges throughout the sales journey. “While we encountered some financial hurdles, Gaurang introduced us to Spring, a finance company that swiftly resolved the issue.”

Reflecting on the entirety of the process, Sandhu expressed immense satisfaction with Kaushik’s service. “I would highly recommend him and LINK Business Brokers to anyone looking to buy or sell their business.”

The successful acquisition of Q Liquor stands as a testament to the power of aligning client aspirations with a seasoned broker’s expertise. This successful sale showcases how meticulous research, strategic insights, and effective mediation can culminate in a mutually beneficial business transaction within the dynamic retail sector.
