About the Marlin Group Restaurant/Bar Brokerage Team

It is our Mission, as the leading restaurant brokerage in Oregon, to provide the most complete and professional intermediary services to clients and customers that are available in the state.

Having been involved with the restaurant industry since 1975, I understand how precious ownership is in our industry, and how difficult it is to maintain the highest value for your business. I realize that it is difficult for a business owner, who has an interest in selling, to sort through the options of how to go about the sale process.

The Marlin Group is committed to being careful and thorough with every one of our clients and customers. Or approach is more "professional practice" than it is "sales organization". The biggest difference between us and our competition is the quality and experience of our people, our attentive hands-on management of the transaction process, and adherence to our business philosophy of providing high quality, professional services in every transaction.

We know that this is the type of service that most of you restaurant and bar owners are looking for and you should expect nothing less from the Marlin Group or any of the members of our team.

If I can answer any of your questions regarding your decision to buy or sell, please feel free to give me a call at 503 241-2330 or contact me by email.
