 The Business Sale Report is the UK's leading independent businesses for sale research service, established in 1995.
Each month, hundreds of companies for sale with an annual turnover in excess of £400k or a value between £250k and £10m are listed here by private vendors, business brokers and accountants throughout the UK.
Subscribers to the Business Sale Report are able to directly access the full contact details of vendors or their agents for every business for sale listed. Get access to premium news on company sales and distressed business sale opportunities.
As a subscriber, you will have direct access to a database of thousands of profitable trading businesses for sale in the UK,
segregated into industry categories.
There is no other single source for these listings. Over the last sixteen years,
we have built up a specialist research unit that manually examines and checks every new business for sale listing, and actively searches
the market for impending divestments.
As soon as a UK company comes onto the market, we aim to have it listed here immediately.
