GLC was the right choice as they understood the unique value proposition Melvin possessed for the right acquirer that allows the Melvin brand to continue and flourish. GLC ran a vigilant process allowing us to maximize value and find the right partner – one that seeks to retain and grow our staff, values our partnership and shared vision with the town of Alpine, and has the experience and leadership to grow the Melvin brand. In Roadhouse, we believe we found a perfect fit. GLC’s steadfast dedication to Melvin and the process proved invaluable, and I would without exception, recommend GLC for anyone considering a sale.
