“Navigating the purchase of a business is a complex and deeply personal decision. Richard and the team at Qurate provided me with more than just expert business advice – they truly cared about how this acquisition would impact me as a whole person. Richard’s vast experience meant there was no scenario he hadn’t encountered before, and his strategic guidance gave me the confidence to move forward, knowing that every option had been carefully explored. With Qurate’s support, I didn’t just make a sound business decision – I made the right decision for me. Their ability to blend commercial insight and expertise with genuine care is what sets them apart.”
