“Working with B&A Energy Partners made the entire sales process remarkably smooth and transparent. Their team understood the unique qualities of our business, anticipated challenges before they arose, and provided thoughtful guidance at every step. Their expertise allowed us to focus on our operations with confidence, knowing the transition would be handled professionally. I am deeply grateful for their partnership and support throughout this journey
Regarding Trent Bischoff and his team at B&A Energy. I couldn‘t have found a better or more experienced outfit for this endeavor. Trent and his team are highly intelligent, highly qualified and highly experienced brokers in the retail propane selling market.. There is no way I could have done this on my own or done this without B&A Energy.
If you own a retail propane company, I highly recommend that you hire B&A Energy to market your company. I have spoken to many. They (B&A) are miles ahead of the pack and the are by far, the best in this space. That‘s my opinion and I‘m more than glad we met and they were able to get the outcome that I was expecting and hoping for.“
“It was truly a pleasure working with Alex and his family throughout this process. Hino Gas represents generations of hard work and commitment to its customers and community. Our goal was to ensure that this legacy was transitioned to the right buyer — one who shares those values and is well positioned to carry the business forward. We are proud to have helped achieve that outcome.“
