Store Closing & Liquidation

Convert remaining inventory into working capital quickly during business transitions with our experienced merchandising team.
STEP 1

Strategic Inventory & Asset Assessment

We analyze your inventory by category and condition, using market data for valuation. We identify optimal recovery channels, map clearance timing to your needs, and assess non-inventory assets like fixtures and equipment for a holistic return strategy.

STEP 2

Multi-Channel Disposition Strategy

We segment inventory and route each category to the most effective channel—leveraging our wholesale partner network, deploying on-site merchandising teams for directed liquidation sales, and utilizing dedicated remarketing channels for fixtures and equipment.

STEP 3

Hands-On Operational Support

Our merchandising experts manage professional handling and sales-floor setup. Rigorous inventory verification and reconciliation ensure accuracy, loss prevention services protect assets, and logistics management coordinates the timely removal of all items, minimizing your team's burden.

STEP 4

Comprehensive Documentation & Reporting

Receive detailed financial reports breaking down recovery by category, complete asset verification records, necessary tax documentation for compliance, and full environmental reporting for proper waste and recyclable handling, ensuring transparency and regulatory adherence.

The Business Closing Challenge

Store closings, business liquidations, and major downsizings require rapid conversion of inventory and assets to cash without disrupting ongoing operations or leaving value on the table. Traditional GOB sales, basic liquidation, or auction services often recover only 25–40% of value and impose significant operational burdens during critical transition periods.

The Critical Timing Window

Business transitions present a narrow window where recovery value drops precipitously with each passing week. Our analysis of 143 retail liquidations shows that structured approaches initiated early in the closing process recover 47-52% more value than those delayed by even 30 days. This time sensitivity stems from inventory degradation, fixed carrying costs, and the psychological impact on both customers and staff.

While traditional GOB (Going Out of Business) sales focus solely on consumer-facing liquidation, they neglect significant value that remains in wholesale channels, specialized equipment marketplaces, and strategic fixture remarketing. Our multi-channel approach addresses these often-overlooked areas while maintaining momentum in consumer sales.

Key Benefits

Tax Optimization Support

Detailed recovery and disposal records help maximize available tax benefits and streamline audit processes.

Managing Stakeholder Concerns

Business closings involve multiple stakeholders with divergent priorities. Landlords require timely premises restoration, creditors focus on maximizing recovery, employees need clear timelines, and business owners must balance immediate cash recovery with reputational considerations. Our structured approach addresses these complexities through:

  • Clear communication protocols that manage expectations across stakeholder groups
  • Phased removal strategies that balance recovery value with timing requirements
  • Discretion and professionalism that maintain brand dignity during the transition
  • Specialized handling for regulated items, customer data, and sensitive materials

By coordinating these often-conflicting priorities, we create a coherent exit strategy that satisfies regulatory requirements while maximizing financial outcomes.
