Larry Klar, Partner at Argosy Partners, noted, “We are proud to have been a part of Celtrade’s evolution to become a leader in its niche and we are confident that the combination of Stir Foods, Chris Bouchard and his team will build on Celtrade’s already impressive track record.” He continued, ” Osprey Capital conducted a strong disciplined process that was successful for the vendors.”

"Osprey Capital’s professional process allowed us to secure a transaction with the ideal partner in Canem that ensures the long-term future of our people and our company. It immediately positioned McCaine to leverage the operational and field experience of Canem."

"Osprey Capital played a key role in sourcing the opportunity and guided us through negotiations. They ensured that the structure of the acquisition enabled us to maintain the core values of the vendors, employees and to position us for growth and expansion for the future of all businesses under the ownership.”

Osprey Capital Partners is very proud of our track record of helping our clients buy, sell and finance Canadian businesses. We continually strive to offer the best possible service to our clients.

“I knew that Osprey shared the same entrepreneurially spirit that I have, and the team from Osprey would be hungrier to get a deal done than some of the large institutional M&A players that I interviewed. I have always lived and thrived in a sales environment where success is highly dependent on effort and skill. That’s what I thought I was getting – and my instincts were bang on. The Osprey team proved to be easy to work with and produced an excellent outcome for the shareholders.”

“Osprey Capital’s professionalism, depth and transactional focus was evident from the outset. They ensured that our objectives were at the forefront of the process that resulted in an outcome that exceeded our family’s expectations.”

“The team at Osprey Capital delivered on our ask to source opportunities that would allow us to expand the service and operations of Place-Crete.”

“In 2016, after several years of restructuring and operational improvements to our business, my partner and I decided that would like to put our business up for sale. By this time we had already spoken with other M & A firms and were approached by Osprey just at the right time. The gentleman at Osprey said all the right things and delivered on their promises. Osprey was successful in selling a portion of our business in 2017 and we were very pleased with the outcome.”

“Osprey were true professionals from start to finish. They took us through a systematic process, backed with a wealth of experience, to help find the best possible partner. This process was about making the company stronger and poised for growth; Osprey helped us achieve exactly that.”
