Who Is Morgan & Westfield?

The Baton Rouge, Louisiana, office of Morgan & Westfield is a member of the larger nationally recognized Morgan & Westfield business brokerage firm. Morgan & Westfield is one of the largest and most successful business brokerage firms in North America. Our national firm is comprised of many local offices spread throughout the country. Each of these local offices focuses exclusively on serving the business owners of its local communities.

Although each local Morgan & Westfield office is separated geographically, all Morgan & Westfield offices share a common set of values, resources, and standards. These shared resources and principles are what unite all Morgan & Westfield offices and, conversely, separate us from any other business brokerage firm.

Morgan & Westfield’s shared principles and operating procedures have allowed us to establish a reputation for providing quality service that is based on an unshakable ethical foundation. At all Morgan & Westfield offices, our business brokers are committed to providing you with the best possible service. This service is rooted in our high standards of honesty, professionalism, and integrity, and it is what has made Morgan & Westfield so successful.

At Morgan & Westfield we are so confident in our ability to serve you that we take steps to force ourselves to continually earn your business. Specifically, we do not ask you to sign a long-term contract, meaning you are free to work with another broker if you feel that our service is inadequate. Knowing that you are not required to work with us forces our brokers to provide better service in order to continually earn the right to facilitate your sale. Our willingness to push ourselves in this way in order to provide you with the best possible service is what sets Morgan & Westfield apart from the rest.

All Morgan & Westfield offices also share a common set of resources. At Morgan & Westfield we utilize a proprietary database of industry professionals and potential buyers. This database can be used to connect you to potential buyers in other markets and in faraway locations that you otherwise may have been unable to reach. Our database contains thousands of screened and registered individuals, and it represents one of the key advantages to selling your business through any of our local offices.
