How New Tide works

We buy the business, then invest in it

Tap through the model. In plain terms: we take on what you built, bring in modern systems, keep the machining running through the right shops, and grow the accounts you already earned.

Step 01

Acquire the book of business

We buy the whole company or just your customer base and approved-supplier status, whatever fits. The relationships and the reputation are the real value, and that's what we're here for.

What we buy

The businesses we're looking for

If you built something with loyal customers and a hard-earned reputation, we want to talk. Our focus is established operations across the Southland, from the Valley to the South Bay to San Diego.

01 / Shops

Machine & job shops

CNC and manual, prototype through production. Approved supplier status and aerospace pedigree are a plus, and a strong crew matters more than a shiny lobby.

02 / Distribution

Distributors

Fasteners, hardware, tape, aerospace consumables, and the parts that keep planes flying. Businesses that sell product, get paid promptly, and keep customers coming back.

03 / Specialty

Specialty process shops

Gun drilling, trepanning, thread rolling, grinding, gearing, precision cutting. The services every other shop depends on, even when there's no machining under your roof.

What makes a great fit

  • Established customer relationships and an approved supplier book
  • A solid crew that knows the work
  • Equipment that has earned its keep
  • An owner thinking about retirement, a next chapter, or simply less on their plate
  • Room to modernize the systems behind the scenes
  • Southern California roots, including owned buildings and real estate

Are we a fit

Six quick taps, one honest read

No forms, no email required to try it. Answer a few questions about your business and watch the meter. We'll tell you straight whether we're likely the right buyer, and either way the next move is a simple conversation.

01 · What kind of business is it?
02 · Where are you?
03 · Aerospace or approved-supplier work?
04 · Do you own the building?
05 · Where's your head on selling?
06 · Rough annual revenue?

Your fit read

Waiting on you

Answer the first two questions and the meter comes alive. The more you tell it, the sharper the read.

Ways to sell

Sell what you want to sell

Some owners want a clean exit. Some want to hand off the headaches and keep a piece. Some just want to sell the customer list and be done. Pick the one that sounds like you.

A clean exit

Sell the whole company

You hand over the keys and walk into your next chapter. We take on the customers, the crew, the equipment, and the building if you own it.

  • One buyer, one deal, one closing date you help set
  • Your crew keeps their jobs and their standing
  • Flexible structure, including seller notes and creative terms
  • We can buy or lease the real estate, whichever you prefer
  • A transition period only as long as you want it to be
The simplest path

Sell just the book of business

Keep the building. Keep the equipment. Some of our cleanest deals are a customer list, an approved-supplier book, and a handshake.

  • You keep the assets you want to keep
  • We take on the accounts and keep them well served
  • Far less paperwork than a full company sale
  • A good fit if the building or equipment is worth more to you held
  • You introduce us to your customers on your terms
Something in between

Hand off the headaches, keep a piece

Not quite ready to fully let go. Sell the majority, roll some equity forward, and stay as involved as you want while we run the day-to-day.

  • Take real money off the table now
  • Keep upside as the business grows under new systems
  • Step back from the parts that wear you out
  • Stay on as an advisor, or step away on a timeline that suits you
  • Your name and reputation carried forward, not erased

How it works

Four steps, on your timeline

Ready to sell this year, or just starting to think about it. Either way the process starts the same place, and you can click through it right here.

A quiet conversation

Tell us about your business and what you're thinking. No pressure, no obligation, and no paperwork to get started. Just a real conversation between people who speak the same language.

After the handshake

What happens to what you built

We're operators, and we play the long game. After close, we invest in the business, modernize the back office, and keep serving the customers who counted on you. The reputation you spent a career building keeps working.

Modern systems, same standards

New technology and cleaner operations behind the scenes, with the craftsmanship and service your customers already trust out front.

More for your existing customers

Added services, better turnaround, and the capacity to win back the work you never had time to chase.

Relationships carried forward

Your people, your vendors, and your accounts treated the way you would treat them. That's the whole point.
