  1. Tom Milana from Transworld was fantastic ! He really knows his stuff. He took all qualified buyers to my restaurant and sold it. I would definitely use him again in the future. Don’t hesitate to call him if you need to sell a business or buy a business, you won’t be disappointed.

  2. Very professional team. All you would want to have an excellent business experience. My agents were: Cynthia Correa and Randy Bring Transworld Business Advisors Fort Lauderdale I was buying a business. I always felt the Transworld Team Support having my back. They were just great.

  3. I chose Transworld Business advisor to sell my company which closed today and my Broker Aleks Ratrovice was the best broker that I could have asked for. He was knowlegeable and proffessional and responsive to any and all requests or information. Aleks is the man to see if you want to buy or sell a business, he made the process easy.

  4. Moche is excellent at what he does. He got my business sold quickly and was always there when needed.

  5. Our recent experience with Aniss and Transworld Business Advisors far exceeded our expectations. Our business sold quickly and Aniss was there every step of the way to make it happen. Extremely professional, knowledgeable and motivated! Our thanks to Aniss and Transworld Business Advisors. We highly recommend their services.

    Debbie Martin
  6. Selling a small family owned business during a global pandemic you want to choose a leader in business brokerage that is knowledgeable, experienced, and hands on. Choosing Transworld and Marty Fishman was the only choose for us. With their wide range of contacts, their marketing ability, and attention to details we were able to sell sooner than anticipated. Marty was with us every step, guiding, enlightening, and always available to explain the process and answer questions. Retirement is now reality after having sold our dream. Thank you Marty and Transworld!

  7. Upon deciding to list our business for sale, we interviewed numerous business brokers but it was clear Tom Milana was the best in the business. We were immediately impressed with Tom’s ability to listen and learn about our business and our goals. He clearly articulated his process, terms, and plan to get our business sold in a timeframe and price that met our needs. Throughout the entire process, Tom was ALWAYS available and responsive to every question and hurdle. The end result was we successfully closed on the sale of our business in less than a month from listing. We had unique challenges in getting this done so quickly including working through an outstanding PPP loan and coordination with an international buyer. I personally would immediately go straight back to Tom Milana when I buy or sell another business in the future. And I would strongly recommend him to anyone looking to do the same.

    Daniel Santamaria
  8. We were very fortunate to have done business with Tom Jones of Transworld Business Advisors of Fort Lauderdale. We purchased a national franchise Junk King through him and couldn't be happier. Tom is very responsive and extremely knowledgeable. We highly recommend using him if you are looking to sell or purchase a franchise.

  9. Tom Jones has become a friend and has earned a seat on my board of trustees due to the outstanding work that both he and Transworld Business Advisors Fort Lauderdale have done with the sale of my Chiropractic Office. As the seller of a chiropractic practice is both a difficult task by itself this transaction also included the real estate. Thank you Tom and Transworld. I would only consider using you to work with with my other offices and businesses. Oh, This is the second successful sale we have done together... Dr. E

    Renny Edelson
  10. I sold both of my businesses with Randy Bring at Transworld. Couldn't be happier, Randy and his team were super professional and helped me at every step of the way, starting with finding the right buyers, managing due diligence, obtaining financing and through legal documents, working with the CPAs and dealing with the landlords. As a matter of fact, I engaged another brokerage company before I met Randy, I wasted an entire year and didn't get anywhere, as soon as I was out of that other agreement, a good friend recommended Transworld, I engaged Randy and within 4 weeks he brought me the right buyers. I highly recommend Transworld to anyone that is ready to buy, sell or Franchise his business. Thank you so much.

  11. Max Crescenzi handled the sale of our business. Very professional, knowledgeable, helpful and efficient. Would definitely recommend Max to others.
