Creating Business Growth & Opportunity With Ease

BizGro Partners is a Business Development & Investment Firm that has helped small and medium sized businesses grow, expand and/or transition for over a decade with a proven track record of success.

We achieve our clients’ growth objectives by through:

Completing Business Acquisitions On Behalf of Our Client
Directly Funding Business Acquisition Opportunities
Acquiring Majority Interests in Our Clients So We Can Finance and Manage Future Growth

At BizGro Partners, we help our clients establish a business acquisition criteria, identify business acquisition opportunities on their behalf, help structure and negotiate the transaction, perform due diligence, and either directly fund or raise outside capital needed to complete the acquisition.

Through our service and growth methodology, it would not be unusual for our client to double or triple the size and profitability of the business without having to use any of its own capital.

Finally, in select cases, we acquire a majority interest in our client and become its Financial Partner so that we can fund, manage, and facilitate future growth for the business. We also serve as a consultant for many of our clients who are looking to position and organize themselves to grow through our business acquisition methodology.

About Us

J.C. Maldonado III

CEO/Principal

J.C. Maldonado III is the CEO of BizGro Partners. JC originally founded the predecessor entity, that evolved into BizGro, in the year 2000 as a M&A Firm that focused on helping small & middle market companies buy & sell companies. Over the years JC and his partners saw that the clientele they served needed services that go beyond the scope of Investment Banking Services. He also saw that Baby Boomer owners in their 50s & 60s are more apt to hold on to their businesses and expand their companies as opposed to exiting and retiring. This marketplace dynamic further influenced the decision for BizGro to go from being an M&A Firm to a Full Service Business Development Firm. JC is an experienced trainer, motivator, & sales manager. He has a J.D. from Fordham University and chose to go into business instead of practicing law.
