Travis Bryenton
Keller Williams
Serving Fulton County, GA
Travis Bryenton is a business broker specializing in the sale of founder-led, owner-operated, and lifestyle businesses — with a nationally recognized focus on fly fishing shops, outdoor retailers, guide services, and outfitters. Based in Atlanta, Georgia, Travis brings three generations of outdoor industry experience to business brokerage. His mother served as Executive Director of Eastern Outdoor Sales Reps (now 360 Adventure Collective) for over 20 years, his father was a founding member of that organization and an independent sales rep since the late 1970s, and Travis himself spent over 15 years as an independent sales rep representing brands including Columbia Sportswear, Teva, Merrell, and Wolverine to specialty retailers across the Southeast. Travis is a member of the Georgia Association of Business Brokers (GABB) and the International Business Brokers Association (IBBA), and represents sellers across the United States on main street and middle market transactions ranging from $100,000 to $5 million and beyond. His approach is built around the intersection of real estate, leases, and business value — a critical combination for location-dependent businesses where lease terms, renewal options, and assignment rights directly affect what a buyer will pay. As a KW Commercial agent with a background in tenant representation, Travis brings an advantage to lease-heavy transactions that most generalist brokers simply can't offer. Services include exit planning, business valuation, confidential buyer marketing, buyer qualification, lease analysis, negotiation support, and transaction management through closing. If you own a fly fishing shop, outdoor retail store, guide service, outfitter, or active lifestyle business and are considering a sale — now or in the future — Travis offers confidential consultations focused on valuation, timing, and realistic next steps. ? 678-631-9696 ?
