$300k Biz with Employees = VISA and Citizenship?

[jago25_98]

I have a friend selling a security business. Employees are included. How many are required to help with a VISA?

I think it's not the time to sell since I would expect security is forecast to booming now and in the future,
but they say they have no choice.

It strikes me that this could be a useful option for a business person looking to move to the UK. Where can I get more info on this VISA catagory, file it under Entrepreneur?
