FAQs
How much does it cost to buy a retail business?
The median asking price for a retail business is approximately $300,000. However, this can vary significantly depending on the size, location, and financial performance of the store or shop.
How much do local retail business owners earn?
On average, store owners report median annual sales of $600,000 and annual owner earnings of $133,000. These figures are based on businesses that have listed their annual revenue and seller's discretionary earnings.
How do I value a retail business?
Valuing a retail business involves considering several factors, including annual revenue, profit margins, location, real estate, and market conditions. Brokers, business owners, and business buyers will typically rely on valuation multiples to gauge business value relative to similar businesses in the market. Retail revenue multiples typically range from 0.37 to 0.85, with the median at 0.56. Earnings multiples range from 1.79 to 3.50, with the median at 2.53. These values suggest a typical local retail business will sell for around 0.56 times its annual revenue, and 2.53 times its annual owner’s earnings.
