Matt Cantlon

With a strong background in marketing and business development, Matt brings a strategic, people-first approach to every business sale.

He has worked extensively within New Zealand’s franchising sector, partnering with some of the country’s leading franchise systems and also gaining firsthand experience as a franchise owner. This blend of corporate insight and real-world understanding helps Matt to connect with clients from a wide range of backgrounds and industries.

Matt understands that buying or selling a business is a significant milestone, often representing years of hard work, personal investment and commitment. He takes the time to understand each client’s goals, motivations and concerns, and is committed to achieving the best possible outcomes for everyone involved in the process. With deep experience in commercial negotiations, Matt also understands the importance of open communication, and managing the negotiation process with understanding and respect.

When he’s not meeting with clients or negotiating a deal, you’ll find Matt out on the water chasing fish, or spending time with his family exploring beaches and bush walks around Auckland and beyond.
