Selling a business is complex. Choosing the right broker shouldn’t be. At Hallmark Business Sales, we combine the reach of a major agency with the care and attention of a boutique family firm.
Founded in 1993 in a humble garage, Hallmark Business Sales has grown into one of the most respected boutique agencies serving the Northern Rivers, Gold Coast, Brisbane, and beyond. For over three decades, we have remained true to our core mission: to help business owners retire or move onto their next venture profitably, easily, and professionally.
We are not a "faceless" firm where you are just another file number. We are a personalized service provider that builds synergy with you. Whether you are selling a manufacturing plant, an online retail store, or a wholesale distribution network, we bring a proven track record of matching the right people with the right businesses.
If you are looking for a proactive partner who values communication and results over volume, welcome to Hallmark Business Sales.
The Hallmark Difference: A Team-Based Model
Most business brokerages operate on a "eat what you kill" commission-only model. This often leads to internal competition, high staff turnover, and a lack of support.
Hallmark does things differently. Our professional staff are remunerated via a salary-based system and profit-share scheme (similar to legal or accounting professions).
Why does this matter to you?
-
True Collaboration: Because our brokers are not fighting for individual commissions, the entire team works to sell your business.
-
Shared Knowledge: In most firms, only the listing broker can sell the business. At Hallmark, everyone on the team is committed to your sale.
-
Superior Service: Our brokers are supported by internal management experts, accountants, and marketing professionals, ensuring your file is always moving forward, even if your specific contact is away.
Specialists in Complex Industries
We don't try to be everything to everyone. We specialize in sectors where we have deep expertise and a proven history of success.
Our Core Focus Areas Include:
-
Wholesale & Distribution
-
Industrial & Manufacturing (Food, Chemical, Construction)
-
Online Retail & eCommerce
-
Commercial Services (Traffic Control, Pool Services)
We understand the unique valuation metrics of these industries—from stock-at-value (SAV) complexities to supply chain contracts and intellectual property.
Unrivaled Valuation Accuracy
Pricing a business correctly is the first step to a successful sale. Guesswork leads to stagnation.
Hallmark Business Sales holds a distinct advantage that you will not find elsewhere: 25+ years of historic business sales data.
Our unparalleled internal database of past sales allows us to benchmark your business against decades of real-world results, not just current asking prices. Furthermore, our Managing Director and founder, Peter Gwynne, is a Certified Valuer. This combination of historic data and professional qualification ensures that your business is valued accurately to withstand due diligence and maximize your profit.
A Process Built on "Proactive" Service
We know that the last thing you want is a broker you have to constantly chase.
-
Communication & Support: We are here to serve you, not the other way around. You are guaranteed regular, up-to-date communication throughout the entire process.
-
Proactive Not Reactive: We don't just list your business and wait for the phone to ring. We actively screen our vast database of buyers to find a match.
-
Right People, Right Business: We filter out the "tyre kickers." Our screening service ensures that we only present you with buyers who have the capacity and genuine intent to purchase.
