Buy managed service providers with recurring monthly managed-services revenue across Canada. BizBuy.ca provides hands-on buyer-side consulting for msps & it acquisitions throughout Burnaby and Metro Vancouver.
Managed Service Providers are one of the highest-multiple SMB categories in Canada — driven by contractual monthly recurring revenue, mission-critical client dependency, and high switching costs. The diligence complexity is real: contract type, cybersecurity liability exposure, vendor certifications, and technical staff retention all matter enormously.
Burnaby is the second-largest city in Metro Vancouver and one of the strongest SMB acquisition markets in BC. Lower lease costs than Vancouver, strong commercial density (Metrotown, Brentwood, Lougheed Town Centre, Edmonds), and excellent residential density support a wide range of acquisition targets.
Metro Vancouver has a deep MSP market — hundreds of shops ranging from 2-person break-fix operations to 50-person fully managed providers. The strongest acquisition targets are 10-30 person MSPs with 80%+ MRR ratios, Microsoft Gold/Silver status, and diversified client bases. Victoria and Kelowna have growing tech-dependent SMB markets underserved by local MSPs.
