Investing in the businesses that keep South Florida running.

I'm an engineer and operator looking to buy and run one great B2B business in South Florida.

One acquisition. Full commitment.

About

An operator, not a financial buyer.

I'm Dorly Bouguignon, a Miami-based engineer with a career spent running operations, supply chain, and product execution across industrial and manufacturing environments.

I'm not looking to acquire a business and hand it to a management team. I want one business I can step into and run. I take seriously what it means for an owner to hand off something they've spent years building, and I'm committed to honoring that.

Capital is committed. SBA financing is in process. I'm ready to move when the right business comes along.

$3M to $10M

Target enterprise value

60 to 90 days

Diligence window

Miami-Dade & Broward

Geography

6 months

Target close from first call

For Business Owners

You're not just selling a business.

I moved to the United States from Haiti as a teenager. I built my career from the ground up, and I've spent years working in environments where things break, where you figure it out, and where the people around you are the reason anything gets done.

That's the kind of business I'm looking for. One where the owner spent years showing up every day and built something people depend on. I know what that takes, and I don't take it lightly.

When I buy your business, I'm not handing it to a manager and moving on. I'll be there. I want to learn it from you, take care of the people who make it run, and make sure what you built keeps going.

That's not a line on a website. It's why I'm doing this.

Your team stays

I'm not coming in to restructure. The people who built this business are the reason it works.

Your customers won't notice a disruption

Continuity is the goal. I'll be on-site from day one, learning from you before you step back.

Your legacy is the starting point

What you've built is the foundation. I'm here to grow it, not replace it.

The deal works for both sides

Seller financing is welcome. I'm flexible on structure and patient on timeline.

Acquisition Criteria

What I'm looking for.

I'm focused on established B2B businesses with recurring revenue, a real customer base, and an owner who's built something worth protecting. Industry matters less than fundamentals. If the business has been running for over a decade and generates consistent cash, I want to hear about it.

Not a fit

Owner-dependent businesses, general contractors, trucking, staffing, beverage distribution, consumer retail, and hospitality.

Seller Earnings $500K to $2.0M

Enterprise Value $3M to $5M standalone, up to $10M syndicated

Revenue $3M to $15M

EBITDA Margin 20% or higher preferred

Geography Miami-Dade & Broward County

Track record 10 or more years operating

Revenue profile Recurring or route-based preferred

Why Work With Me

What makes this different.

Direct buyer, no committees

No fund approval cycles, no investment committee. When I say yes, it means something. Decisions are mine to make.

I'll be in the building

Based in Miami, planning to be on-site every day. Your employees and customers matter to me because they will be mine.

Seller financing welcome

How a deal is structured matters as much as the number. I'm open to seller notes and flexible structures that work for both sides.

Full confidentiality

I run a tight process. I won't bring unnecessary parties in or create noise in your market before we have a signed agreement.

Process

Simple, straightforward, no surprises.

Step 01

Intro call

30 minutes

No NDA required. Just a conversation to hear about your business and see if there is a fit on both sides. Early is fine — I'm happy to talk before you've made any decisions.

Step 02

NDA and review

Within 72 hours

If there is a fit, we sign an NDA and I review basic financials. I'll share a preliminary valuation range and potential deal structure quickly.

Step 03

Letter of intent

Within 2 weeks

I put terms on paper: price, payment structure, and timeline. No ambiguity, no drawn-out negotiations before we know we're aligned.

Step 04

Due diligence

60 to 90 days

Focused and professional. I know what I need to get comfortable and won't ask for more than that. Full confidentiality throughout.

Step 05

After diligence

We close and I get to work.

For Intermediaries

Working with brokers and advisors.

I work well with intermediaries. If you have a client in Miami-Dade or Broward who is considering a sale and fits the criteria above, I'd welcome a conversation. I move quickly, keep things tight, and won't waste your time or your client's.

Fee agreements are respected. Reach out directly and I'll respond same day.

Contact

Let's talk.

If you're thinking about what's next for your business, whether that's a year from now or five, reach out early. There's no process until you want one.
