APPLE VALLEY, Calif. - Californer -- Calder Capital, a nationwide mergers and acquisitions advisory firm, is delighted to announce the successful acquisition of Yeghoian Grading and Paving of Apple Valley, California, by individual entrepreneurs Derrick LeBlanc and Greggory Sgarlata.
Founded in 1986, Yeghoian Grading and Paving has established itself as one of the High Desert region's most respected asphalt paving, grading, sealcoating, striping, excavation, and parking lot maintenance contractors. After 28 years with the business, Bill Chaves engaged Calder Capital's Sell-Side team to identify a qualified buyer capable of preserving the company's legacy, as he sought to spend more time with his 22 grandchildren.
Chaves' engagement led to Calder Capital marketing and advising the sale of their business to individual entrepreneurs Derrick LeBlanc and Greggory Sgarlata.
Derrick LeBlanc discovered Calder Capital's listing for Yeghoian Grading and Paving on BizBuySell. As an established business owner looking to expand his portfolio and enter the paving industry, he expressed strong interest in the company.
