# Imperial Brady

Jersey City, New Jersey. The most acquisitive buyer of janitorial and packaging distributors in the country, formed this year from two rivals, and still buying single-branch family houses in the trade.

## The Firm

The record is the argument here. The five purchases below are a Rochester distributor operating since 1936, a Milwaukee one since 1964, a Georgia business held by one family since 1979, a fourth-generation Mid-Atlantic house roughly a hundred and twenty years old, and a western Canadian distributor founded in 1973. One of the releases numbers the deal as the ninety-sixth under current ownership.

What it does not publish is any invitation. The merger this year moved the whole site to a new domain and the sell-your-business page did not survive the move, so what remains is a news index with dated purchases and nowhere for an owner to start the conversation. There are no criteria, no size band and no statement about what happens to a seller afterwards.

For a reader of the jan-san guide the useful reading is not that this firm might buy them. It is that the businesses it buys are the businesses they are shopping for, which is a fair warning about how contested that market is.

## Confirmed Deals

Deals traced to announcements, newest first. Firms that announce every deal show a fuller run here than firms that report acquisitions as quarterly counts, so read this as the evidence that clears the bar rather than as the firm's whole record.
