Pflugerville business brokers and M&A advisors
MDR & Associates acts as the M&A advisor for Pflugerville owners who want to sell a company quietly and for full value. Pflugerville lies mostly in Travis County, 14 miles northeast of downtown Austin, with State Highways 130 and 45 running through it, and we will meet you at your office or at a private location.
From cotton gin to distribution center
German immigrant Henry Pfluger Sr. settled here beginning in 1849, and the early economy rested on corn, wheat, rye, beans, sweet potatoes, sugar cane and cotton. When the Missouri–Kansas–Texas Railroad finished its track in 1904, the community grew quickly, and the first cotton gin was built the same year. More than a century later, State Highways 130 and 45 opened in 2006, with about three miles of 130 inside the city.
Recent arrivals fit that transport story. Amazon opened a distribution center expected to bring 1,000 full-time jobs, Curative opened a lab that added hundreds of jobs for COVID-19 testing, and Stone Hill Town Center combines retail with a St. David's HealthCare 24-hour emergency facility. The city, which sits in the Austin–Round Rock metropolitan statistical area, had 65,191 residents in 2020.

Selling a business in Pflugerville's logistics corridor
If your company moves, stores or supplies goods, buyers of distribution businesses will ask about warehouse leases, fleet condition, supplier agreements and how dependent you are on one or two accounts. We prepare those answers in the marketing package before a buyer thinks to ask.
Distribution buyers also test working capital: the inventory, receivables and payables that come with the business on closing day. The purchase agreement usually sets a target level, and a poorly set target can quietly cost a seller real money. We model it with your CPA early, so the number on the letter of intent is the number you receive.
Before any of that, it helps to know where you stand. We offer a formal business valuation as an optional service, and our free opinion of value, a range drawn from your last three years of statements, costs nothing.
Working with owners across the Austin metro
Pflugerville owners get the same approach we use throughout the Austin area: a blind profile, qualified buyers who sign NDAs and prove funding, several letters of intent at once and a principal in every negotiation. Our fee is paid only if the company sells.

Questions owners in Pflugerville ask
Would a large distribution company buy my Pflugerville business?
It is possible. Strategic buyers sometimes acquire smaller companies to add routes, customers or capacity near a major hub. They sit in our buyer pool alongside private equity and individual buyers. Having several types of buyers compete is how we find out who will pay the most and offer the best terms.
Does being on SH 130 matter to buyers of a Pflugerville company?
For companies that move goods or send crews across the metro, yes. Quick highway access cuts travel and delivery time, which buyers value. We describe your service area and delivery routes plainly so buyers understand the practical advantage of your location.
