Growth through mergers and acquisitions is common in retail business sectors like convenience stores. Rapid expansion through acquisitions, that includes converting operationally required licenses, is a complex process, and often overwhelming for internal teams unfamiliar with all regulations in all states.
We have the staff, systems, and expertise to provide all-out speed in converting all license types for acquired locations. Our model is simple: all fixed fees, all-out speed, all in-house in all states. We routinely obtain business, health, lottery, SNAP, tobacco, and other ancillary licenses needed to operate a retail location within 45 – 60 days.
