Broker Biography
Introduction
Browning Williams is a successful businessman born and raised in Texas, and the owner/broker of First Choice Business Brokers - Houston Memorial Office, a nationwide firm. With decades of experience, Browning has a deep understanding of the "business of businesses," which enables him to help sellers and buyers come together to acquire profitable businesses across the United States.
Browning's career began when he founded Summit Mortgage Corporation in 1988, where he served as CEO/President for over twenty years. Summit became the largest individually owned mortgage banking firm in Texas, with over a dozen offices in major metropolitan areas such as Houston, Dallas, Austin, San Antonio, Denver, Phoenix, and Las Vegas. The company earned several awards, including "Houston's Top 100" fastest-growing companies.
In 2018, Browning partnered with Ikon Midstream LLC, a fuel supplier that has since become a successful seller of blended fuel throughout Texas. The company has also developed into a significant exporter of fuel into Mexico, supplying fuel for distribution throughout the entire country of Mexico.
Browning has held partner or owner positions in various Texas businesses, showcasing his exceptional understanding of the corporate landscape. His expertise plays a pivotal role in facilitating successful acquisitions of profitable businesses across the United States, benefiting both sellers and buyers. Browning's favorite quote encapsulates his philosophy: 'The foundation stones for a balanced success are honesty, character, integrity, faith, love and loyalty.'
When he is not working, Browning enjoys spending time with his grandchildren, which he affectionately calls "Poppy Days." In the past, he enjoyed snow ski racing and open-wheel formula car racing, which led him to win the title of SCCA USA National Champion Southwest Division in Formula Continental. He also raced professionally for several years in "The Road to Indy" Series with Pro Formula Mazda open-wheel cars, which competed all over the United States, Mexico, and Canada.
With a wealth of experience and expertise in the business world, coupled with a proven track record of problem-solving to help clients achieve their goals, Browning is the ideal choice for those seeking to buy or sell a business.
