West Palm Beach, Florida

Sailfish Equity Advisors began over 25 years ago on the shores of Florida’s Emerald Coast. Originally founded as Destin Business Brokers, our firm has grown into one of Florida’s most respected names in business sales and M&A advisory. Today, we serve business owners across the state under three trusted brands:

Destin Business Brokers – Our legacy brand serving the Emerald Coast since the beginning.

South Walton Business Brokers – Focused on businesses in 30A, Miramar Beach, and surrounding areas.

Sailfish Equity Advisors – Our statewide M&A brand for lower middle-market companies and strategic exits.

While our names vary by region and service tier, our mission remains the same: helping business owners unlock maximum value from their life’s work.

Under the leadership of Sarah and Rajiv Khatri, we’ve expanded our resources, reach, and results—while continuing to offer the hands-on, founder-level guidance that’s earned us the trust of entrepreneurs across Florida.
