The Deal
- Bought By
- Tim Haitaian
- Year
- 2024
- Vehicle
- Grand Haven Capital, his own search fund, with the selling owner staying invested, backed by Search Fund Partners, Mineola Search Partners and Legate Partners
- Kind
- Physical operations
A greater-Phoenix construction site services company that began as a two-truck dust control operation and now runs water trucks, portable restrooms, roll-off containers, street sweeping, temporary fencing and site cleaning.
What Happened Next
Still operating across Arizona. The owner who bought it in 2003 and built out the service lines stepped back but stayed invested and involved, which is the shape a searcher wants and rarely gets in writing.
The exit ends of journeys like this one, where the buyer has announced the purchase itself, are on Buyers.
