Franchise development expansion targets experienced professionals as record numbers of business owners prepare to exit
Las Vegas, NEVADA, Sept. 01, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — First Choice Business Brokers (FCBB), a nationally recognized business broker franchise with over $18 billion in businesses listed and managed, today announced the launch of a new multi-channel franchise development initiative aimed at accelerating growth of its franchise network. The initiative is designed to connect experienced professionals with a proven path into business ownership at a pivotal moment for the business transfer industry.
The launch comes as the United States faces what industry observers call an unprecedented wave of business ownership transitions. America is home to more than 30 million small businesses, and research indicates roughly 20 percent of owners are considering selling, representing an estimated 6 million businesses. Yet there are only about 4,500 full-time business brokers nationwide to guide them through that process. FCBB’s expanded franchise development strategy is built to meet that demand by identifying and equipping the next generation of business broker franchise owners.
“Business brokerage is entering an extraordinary period of opportunity as millions of business owners prepare for their eventual exit. There simply are not enough experienced business brokers to serve that need. Expanding the FCBB network allows us to bring well-trained professionals into more markets while helping more business owners successfully navigate one of the most important transactions of their lives.”
Linda Nyman, Co-Founder, First Choice Business Brokers
The new initiative brings together search, social, and public relations efforts under a single coordinated franchise development strategy, with the goal of reaching professionals who bring financial literacy, relationship-building experience, and leadership backgrounds into the business brokerage profession. FCBB’s franchise model is built on more than 30 years of operating history, a capital-light structure, and a comprehensive training and support system delivered through First Choice University.
“After more than 30 years in this business, we know that great business brokers come from many different professional backgrounds. What they tend to have in common is business experience, good judgment and the ability to build relationships. Our job is to give them the training, tools and support to turn that experience into a successful business brokerage.”
Jeff Nyman, Co-Founder, First Choice Business Brokers
