AHV were involved in the project right from the beginning when it was just an idea that I had started to think about. I was particularly impressed with the way they were prepared to invest in the relationship-we had many meetings to flesh out the plan prior to AHV being hired. When the acquisition strategy was defined and AHV were hired, their research was spot on and many possible acquisitions were identified. Since then I am delighted that the relationship has worked extremely well for both parties-we have made 4 acquisitions, all through AHV and there are potentially more to come!

About us
In this section you can find out more about our background and approach to working with clients. We work directly with entrepreneurs from all sectors and through The AHV Network we develop partnerships with trusted professionals, such as accountants and solicitors.
AHV Associates was founded by Andrew Harrington and Hanif Virji in 2001 to provide advice to privately owned businesses in all aspects of corporate finance. At the time, Andrew and Hanif recognised the need to offer corporate finance expertise tailored to the needs of smaller companies.
We know where you're coming from.
We’ve been there before.
Since then, AHV has built a track record of successful transactions with many of our clients returning for advice or referring their contacts to us. All our partners have extensive experience in corporate finance and have been entrepreneurs in their own right. This unique combination of experience gives us the ability to advise businesses on all aspects of their strategic objectives.
In addition to working directly with business owners we work with trusted third parties, such as accountancy firms, legal practices and other advisors. We are keen to meet accountants, solicitors and other professionals who work with entrepreneurs.
We’ve been on both sides of the table and know what it takes to get the right results.
