ABOUT CRADAN
Cradan is a professional due diligence partner for investors and acquirers focused on the lower mid-market. We specialise in delivering financial and commercial diligence that’s clear, comparable, and built for decision-making.
Where traditional providers operate in silos, we join the dots, connecting financial performance, market dynamics and operational realities into a single, coherent view. Our work supports better deal decisions and enables trend analysis across portfolios, creating lasting value beyond the transaction.
Founded by senior professionals with experience both advising and building businesses, Cradan delivers the rigour of a top-tier firm with the speed and focus of a specialist.
INTEGRATED DUE DILIGENCE
We provide joined-up commercial, financial and operational due diligence, designed to give a complete, decision-ready view of each opportunity.
Rather than delivering separate streams in isolation, we connect the data, market context and operational realities that matter.
The result is clearer insight, fewer blind spots and a foundation for value creation beyond the deal.
