Teamshares

Facilitates employee ownership of small businesses

About Teamshares

Teamshares facilitates employee ownership of small businesses, focusing on those whose owners are nearing retirement. The company purchases these businesses and gradually transfers ownership to the employees, starting with 10% of the stock and increasing to 80% over 20 years. This approach helps maintain business continuity and prevents job losses that can occur when a business is sold to an outside buyer. Teamshares generates revenue from the profits of the businesses it acquires and also offers proprietary software, education, and financial products. By promoting employee ownership, Teamshares not only supports the financial stability of employees but also strengthens the local economy by preserving small businesses. The company differentiates itself by recruiting mission-driven leaders for the acquired businesses and providing them with extensive training.
