The U.S. has over 30 million small and mid-sized businesses. An estimated 10,000 Baby Boomer business owners retire every day — most with no succession plan in place. This creates a generational wave of acquisition opportunities for disciplined, well-capitalized buyers like Sunrise Acquisition Fund, LP.
