# Farnam Entrepreneurial Succession Ltd
Farnam Entrepreneurial Succession Ltd is a business acquisition firm founded by Raul Jacob, based in Bromley. The company identifies and purchases established UK small and medium-sized enterprises with annual profits between £0.8m and £5.0m, offering owner-managers a thoughtful exit strategy.
The business serves owner-managers and entrepreneurs who wish to retire or redirect their focus without the complexities of conventional sales or private equity transactions. Rather than pursuing aggressive financial engineering typical of larger buyers, Farnam takes a distinctly entrepreneurial approach rooted in founder experience across manufacturing, retail, business services and agribusiness.
What distinguishes Farnam is its commitment to preserving business legacy and independence. Unlike private equity acquirers bound by portfolio exit timelines, Farnam operates with long-term thinking, allowing leadership to make decisions based on what genuinely benefits the business rather than investor return schedules. The company explicitly avoids the cost-cutting measures that damage established brand reputation and team culture. Sellers benefit from a straightforward transition period, after which they can step away from day-to-day operations entirely.
Raul Jacob's dual background in both family business stewardship and institutional capital markets informs this alternative approach. He recognised a gap in the market for a buyer who combines professional discipline with genuine entrepreneurial values—someone committed full-time to running and growing acquired businesses independently, rather than stripping value for short-term gains.
