The team were positive, persistent and achieved a good result for my business.
Robert Illsley is a licensed Real Estate Agent running the NSW Regional and Canberra office of GSE Business Consultants who specialise in selling food businesses.
I am very passionate about hospitality and have been involved in the industry for much of my working career. I trained as a Fine Dining Restaurant Manager and I have also been involved in the Wine Industry having spent 6 years working for one of th UK’s most well respected merchants.
In 2014 I set up my own specialty coffee shop which I ran for 4 years and I discovered a passion for broking when I came to sell my business. After a couple of bad experiences with brokers I discovered GSE and Paul showed me the right way to sell a business and he helped me to achieve a great price for my café in a reasonable time frame.
I understand that café owners are hard working people and when it comes to selling you want to entrust the sale to somebody who is as passionate about your business as you are.
I believe that selling a business works best in partnership between the broker and the seller and I work hard to gain an intimate knowledge of how your business works and what makes it special and unique and my passion and knowledge for the industry allow me to speak with authority when I am talking to buyers.
It is never too early to develop an exit strategy so if you have been thinking about selling or just want some help to understand what the process will be like when you do, then don’t hesitate to get in touch with me at any time.

I sold my business through GSE Business Consultants – Robert Illsley.
I cannot thank him enough for his hard work and commitment throughout the process.
Robert made the sale the the seller (myself), the buyer, and landlord very easy as he is very competent and there for everyones needs. He is able to handle pressure and offer full training and knowledge to un-experienced purchasers to high end extremely experienced restauranteurs / cafe operators.
Robert is highly experienced in ALL types of businesses but he has a world of knowledge in the hospitality industry.
Robert also helped with my solicitor, buyers solicitor, landlords solicitor, work together in harmony and was able to keep all parties happy all the way through.
I HIGHLY recommend GSE Business Consultants to anyone wanting to sell their business as well as anyone wanting to purchase a business.
I have tryed OTHER business consultants are they have been an absolute waste of time, money and energy.
Rob achieved a great result for us and was a calming influence in what can be a stressful time. He made the transaction simple and communicated progress throughout. He was a pleasure to work with. Peter & Natalie
Made selling a business a smooth and easy process. Thanks Rob
We can highly recommend Rob after he successfully sold our business recently. Him coming from a hospitality background made all the difference in his understanding of our business and appreciation for its true value, which he was staunchly prepared to defend and achieve and this was reflected in the eventual sales price. Rob was always pleasant and professional to deal with, regularly kept us up to date with interest shown in the business and also during the sales process.
Thanks for everything Rob!!
I honestly can’t recommend Rob highly enough, the extra effort he put in to help me sell my business was second to none. I previously had my business listed with another broker but wish I had of found GSE sooner. Thanks mate
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ and extra 5 stars. Thanks
Rob handled our business sale in Wagga, his customer service and knowledge is second to none! He found us a local buyer and was with us every step of the way through until settlement. I would highly recommend Rob for anyone looking to buy or sell a business and business performance services also. Thank you Rob, appreciate all your hard work in getting the deal done for us!
