Yaniv Zohar

With a unique blend of financial expertise, entrepreneurial success, Agribusiness and small business background, legal knowledge, and hands-on business acquisition experience, I help business owners and buyers navigate the complexities of buying and selling businesses with confidence.

My career began in accounting, where I spent more than 15 years developing the financial expertise that now enables me to help clients understand the story behind a company's financial statements. Whether working with buyers evaluating an acquisition or sellers preparing their business for market, I translate financial information into meaningful insights that support informed decision-making.

I also hold an MBA and have built, managed, and successfully exited businesses myself. As the co-founder and manager of a multi-million-dollar law firm for over a decade, I gained firsthand experience in business operations, leadership, strategic growth, and client service. I later owned and operated a highly successful property inspection company in South Florida, earning more than 650 five-star reviews while serving a large and highly competitive market. These experiences give me a practical understanding of the challenges and opportunities business owners face every day.

In addition to my business background, I developed a passion for agriculture at an early age, growing up alongside my grandparents, who instilled in me an appreciation for sustainable farming through the gardens we cultivated together. Those experiences sparked a lifelong interest in agriculture that led me to earn a Bachelor of Science in Agricultural Biotechnology with a specialization in Plant Pathology—the study of plant diseases. Following university, I spent six years working in government, partnering with farmers and agricultural businesses to help strengthen primary production while also supporting secondary producers involved in food processing and value-added agriculture. Today, that lifelong connection to agriculture gives me a genuine appreciation for the challenges and opportunities facing the industry. Whether working with family farms, agribusinesses, food processors, or agricultural investors, I am passionate about helping clients maximize the value of their businesses while supporting the continued success of one of our most essential industries.

Over the years I studied and utilized business and contract law. It is immensely important for a broker to help with valuable insight into the legal aspects of transactions. From letters of intent and purchase agreements to due diligence and contract negotiations, I help identify potential issues early and work toward practical solutions that keep transactions moving forward.

As an active business investor, I have personally analyzed hundreds of acquisition opportunities and understand every stage of the selling and buying process. I've evaluated financial statements, submitted letters of intent, conducted due diligence, negotiated purchase prices, structured transactions, secured financing, and managed post-closing transitions. This firsthand experience allows me to guide both buyers and sellers with practical advice rooted in real-world transactions—not just theory.
