Broker Biography
Introduction
Bret W. Collins is a commercial real estate advisor specializing in the sale of businesses and restaurants across Arizona. He brings more than 20 years of executive sales and strategic consulting experience helping organizations improve performance, optimize operations, and unlock enterprise value across real estate, healthcare, higher education, and service environments.
Prior to entering commercial real estate, Bret held senior leadership roles with RENOVO Solutions, Aramark Healthcare+, Aramark Higher Education, and Provista (a Vizient company), where he led national growth initiatives, developed multimillion-dollar client strategies, and delivered measurable savings and operational improvements for complex organizations. His work included healthcare technology management (HTM), purchased services optimization, group purchasing strategy, and performance improvement initiatives across both acute and non-acute settings.
Today, Bret applies that same analytical and operational perspective to advising owners through business sales, acquisitions, and transitions. His clients benefit from a disciplined, data-driven approach that goes beyond valuation—focusing on positioning businesses for market readiness, identifying strategic buyers, and maximizing transaction outcomes.
Known for his relationship-first style and executive-level insight, Bret partners with entrepreneurs, operators, and investors who want more than a listing agent—they want a strategic advocate throughout the transaction process.
