In the world of Corporate Sales there is no greater accolade or recommendation than being voted Deal Maker of the Year. The highly respected publication 'Finance Monthly' have awarded La Salle Sales Director Matt Dillon this coveted prize for his achievements in 2016/2017.

Indeed, 2016 has been an incredible year for the La Salle team as a whole and our experience of both the International market, place as well as that of the UK, has enabled us to bring together a wide ranging cross section of buyers from a global market place. This is a testament to the skill, expertise and knowledge that our team bring to our corporate clients.

Matt Dillon said ' I am naturally delighted to receive this award. 2016 has been an exceptional year for the company, but I have to say that what we do is very much a team effort and so I must dedicate this award to the highly experienced team around me. Together we strive to provide our clients with the very best advice possible and pride ourselves on being able to achieve the best possible price on their behalf from a global market place'.

'Deal Of The Year' award also won by La Salle

To cap an incredible 2016, La Salle have also won 'Deal Of The Year' a presented by 'Insider' magazine. This equally prestigious award commends the exceptional role that La Salle played in the sale of a £16 million Yorkshire based double glazing manufacturer

This is just one of the many deals completed by La Salle during 2016 and we are delighted that we have been able to deliver the hopes and aspirations to so many clients this year.

2017 is already looking to dwarf 2016 with our pipeline deals being at a record high and the demand for successful UK companies at a premium. With Brexit fast approaching and the general uncertainty of world politics and the world economy there has never been a better time to sell and achieve the best possible price.
