Startup Terms Glossary
What is a Rollup?
A rollup refers to the process a startup takes to acquire and merge together with a number of smaller companies in the same niche. A rollup can be sought out for a few different reasons, but some of the most common include to increase the valuation of the company or to ensure success in markets where multiple similar startups are in business but there is only room for a select few to become successful.
Rollup Examples
Examples of a rollup:
- Example 1. A grocery store chain finds a market in a state where there are three small grocery stores in the area, but no major establishments. They decide to acquire and merge all three stores and move their storefront to the area, making four locations. The increased revenue and brand awareness drives up the price of their stock.

Quick, user friendly and one of the better ways I've come across to get ahold of lawyers willing to take new clients.
View Trustpilot ReviewContracts Counsel was incredibly helpful and easy to use. I submitted a project for a lawyer's help within a day I had received over 6 proposals from qualified lawyers. I submitted a bid that works best for my business and we went forward with the project.
View Trustpilot ReviewI never knew how difficult it was to obtain representation or a lawyer, and ContractsCounsel was EXACTLY the type of service I was hoping for when I was in a pinch. Working with their service was efficient, effective and made me feel in control. Thank you so much and should I ever need attorney services down the road, I'll certainly be a repeat customer.
View Trustpilot ReviewI got 5 bids within 24h of posting my project. I choose the person who provided the most detailed and relevant intro letter, highlighting their experience relevant to my project. I am very satisfied with the outcome and quality of the two agreements that were produced, they actually far exceed my expectations.
