We help people sell and buy businesses! About The CBI+Team: Founded in 1994 as Grimes Business Brokerage, CBI+Team has grown to the largest business brokerage company in Arkansas, Missouri and Oklahoma with four offices serving the Mid-America region. The idea of a business brokerage based on principles of integrity and fair dealing came to Carl Grimes in 1992 as he handled two closings for a local business broker as part of his duties as a closing agent in a title company Grimes had owned and sold. Grimes discovered that although business brokerage could be lucrative it was also fragmented and had an unsavory reputation. Grimes saw how Sellers and Buyers could be manipulated by a business broker who was only focused on collecting a commission, not doing what was best for the Sellers and Buyers. Grimes wrote a business plan in 1992 and in December 1994 when his contract with the title company expired and he began operations in Fayetteville, Arkansas. In 1999 the Northwest Arkansas operation was named “Office of the Year” by the Sunbelt Network of over 250 worldwide offices. In 2000 Grimes bought the franchise for Springfield, Missouri and established a full service business brokerage there. In 2007 Grimes bought the Joplin, Missouri territory and added Fort Smith, Arkansas in 2009. In 2009 the company added the name CBI (Confidential Business Intermediaries) to represent the growing presence and ability of the CBI+Team to handle Mid-Market Mergers and Acquisitions. The CBI+Team has handled hundreds of business sales with the best trained intermediaries in the nation. In 2013 CBI+Team headquarters relocated to Springdale, Arkansas and an additional office was opened in Little Rock, Arkansas with Connor Grimes assuming the role of Managing Partner.
