Based in Los Angeles, we partner with business owners who care about a strong transition and want to see their business continue to grow
Selling your business is likely the most critical decision you'll face as a business owner. Finding the right buyer while navigating a sale that demands discretion and confidentiality can be daunting. It’s not just about securing a fair deal; it’s about ensuring that your business, a significant part of your life, is transitioned into the right hands and continues to prosper.
At Gloria Avenue Partners, we don't just acquire businesses; we embrace and continue legacies. Our unique approach combines a profound respect for your life's work with the expertise and resources to ensure its continued prosperity. Here, your business transitions into caring hands that understand the significance of every decision and value the human story behind the numbers. Choose us not just for a sale, but for a partnership that honors your past and guarantees a thriving future.
If your business fits these criteria, let’s talk about how we can write the next chapter of your success story together.
We focus on established businesses with a solid track record. If your business is profitable and has a strong foundation, we can help elevate it to the next level.
Whether you're considering retirement, a career change, or simply looking to pass on the reins, we're here to ensure a smooth and respectful transition.
If your business is a pillar in your community or carries a significant family legacy, we understand the importance of maintaining its essence and values.
Our expertise is strong in sectors like energy, power, environmental, industrial, healthcare, and other critical services markets, but we're also open to businesses where our background in managing and growing diverse ventures can be applied.
As a California and west-coast native, Darwin has a particular interest in businesses based or can be operated from this region.
If your business would benefit from a hands-on, personalized approach to management and growth, our team is prepared to be deeply involved in day-to-day operations.
Darwin is the Founder and Principal of Gloria Avenue Partners. He is a first-generation college graduate and the youngest of five siblings. He was raised in Los Angeles, where much of his family still lives.
Before starting Gloria Avenue Partners, he worked in investment banking and later in lower middle-market private equity at Oaktree. His interest in entrepreneurship started early. He remembers doing house-sitting and landscaping jobs around the neighborhood to make extra money, helping his uncle pour cement for a fence, and working throughout his time in college. He was always focused on understanding what it would take to eventually run and grow a business of his own.
Darwin cares deeply about community, especially in Southern California where he grew up. He is involved in nonprofit work focused on education and access to opportunity. He brings that same mindset to the businesses he partners with and aims to support the people behind the work as much as the operations themselves.
