Bergen County Business Brokers

Helping Bergen County Business Owners Exit on Their Terms—with Strategy, Confidence, and Results

If you’re a successful business owner in Bergen County and you’re thinking about selling your company, you likely have more questions than answers:

What’s my business worth—and how do I get top dollar for it?

How do I protect my employees and legacy?

Who can I trust to guide me through this once-in-a-lifetime event?

At HartmannRhodes, we work with owners like you—people who have spent decades building strong companies and are now considering a transition, often toward retirement. We specialize in selling privately held businesses valued between $1 million and $25 million, and we know exactly what it takes to exit successfully in today’s market.

Why Bergen County Business Owners Trust HartmannRhodes

Focused on the Lower Middle Market

Unlike many business brokers who focus on very small or “main street” businesses, we specialize in companies worth $1M—$25M. These transactions are more complex and require a different level of experience, deal structure knowledge, and buyer sourcing.

Deep Local Knowledge, National Buyer Reach

We know the Bergen County business landscape and the nuances of doing business in New Jersey. At the same time, we connect you with buyers across the country—private investors, strategic buyers, and family offices actively looking to acquire strong, profitable businesses in this region.

We’ve Been in Your Shoes

Mark Hartmann, founder of HartmannRhodes, built, scaled and sold his own Inc. 5000 company before becoming an M&A advisor. He understands firsthand what’s at stake—and how to help you avoid common mistakes and get the outcome you deserve.

A Process That Protects What You’ve Built

From valuation and preparation to negotiation and closing, we manage the process, so you don’t have to. We handle the details, protect your confidentiality, and keep the process moving—so you can stay focused on your business or start thinking about your next chapter.

You’ve Built a Great Business—Now It’s Time to Exit the Right Way

Selling your business isn’t just a transaction. It’s a transition. It’s about more than numbers—your legacy, your team, and the value you’ve created over a lifetime of work. Our job is to help you exit on your terms with clarity, strategy, and no regrets.

We work with clients throughout Bergen County, including Paramus, Hackensack, Ridgewood, Englewood, Teaneck, Fort Lee, and Mahwah. Whether your company is in professional services, distribution, manufacturing, healthcare, or another sector, we’ll help you prepare for the sale, find the right buyer, and confidently navigate the entire process.
