Senior Consultant, GFC Inc.

Jean-Francois Gervais (BAA)

Having begun my career in corporate financing at NBC, I subsequently worked in the same field for Rona, IGA and various colleges, medical clinics, pharmaceutical companies and manufacturers. Drawing on this experience and extended network, I now work in business sales, acquisitions and valuations and have successfully completed sales transactions in several industries.

With a bachelor’s in business administration and having completed the CPA Canada course in business valuation and acquired M&A experience on the ground, I am perfectly able to sell your company and determine its fair market value.

Jean-François was an outstanding advisor who was very persistent and patient in my business sale file, despite the pitfalls. He remained calm and diplomatic throughout the process, he knew how to negotiate with tact, transparency and honesty with me and the buyer. His experience in business sales and acquisitions certainly made the difference in the outcome of the transaction. Finally, his financial skills, particularly in business valuation, were very useful during the negotiations.

Mario Veilleux

Former President of Veilleux Transit

We asked Mr. Gervais to do two valuations (calculation exercises) of our companies as part of the sale of our companies. The valuation reports were very professional and done according to the rules of the art. These reports were presented and retained by our bankers to finance the project of acquiring our employees internally. His expertise in valuation greatly helped to value our company to buyers and bankers. Mr. Gervais also accompanied us for the sale of our company and we were very satisfied with his service until the final sale. I highly recommend him if you are looking for a true pro in the M&A field.

Gérald Guimont

Former President, Logo Fil Inc.

I did not know Mr. Gervais before our business sale process and I must say that I was very impressed by his skills and the quality of his service. Being a service company, I had doubts about the potential value of our company. Jean-François advised us well thanks to his expertise in business valuation, achieving a sale price beyond our expectations. Very professional and available, he supported me well and reassured me throughout the sales process, particularly thanks to his knowledge of the legal process (LOI, sales agreement, etc.) and financial process (business value, working capital, etc.). A very good communicator, he was a very credible intermediary with the buyer, which greatly facilitated the transaction.

Patrick Desmarais

Former President, Paramedical Management

I met Jean-François Gervais through the sale of my company, which I then hired as a consultant to support me throughout the entire sales process. Beyond my expectations, he was able to listen to my concerns and needs, convincingly defend my case while guiding me through every step with honesty, skill, and professionalism. I still communicate with him regularly today for his sound advice. I sincerely recommend Jean-François Gervais for the quality of his service.

Martin Hébert

Former owner of the company Simplinet Inc.

The sale of my business was emotionally challenging at times, and Mr. Gervais was able to listen to me with patience and understanding. I appreciated his resilience and skills in dealing with the challenges of such a transaction, where he must manage the expectations and emotions of both the seller and the buyer throughout all stages of the process. His input greatly contributed to the successful sale of my business.
