Professional Realty Group of BHHS Ambassador
Serving Lancaster County, NE
PRG (Professional Realty Group) of Berkshire Hathaway Home Services Ambassador Real Estate is a team of realtors dedicated to all aspects of real estate. Not only do we sell businesses, we also specialize in residential, commercial, industrial, development, land, and leases. Marketing properties and/or businesses for sale is one of the most important aspects of moving them in a timely manner and with an optimal amount of interest from multiple buyers. In today's age it's not only important to spread the word by mouth and mailers, but also to have a vast presence online where the majority of buyers are looking. We utilize not only bizbuysell.com, but also Loopnet, MRCIE, Social Media, and prospecting software. This ensures that we're reaching out to as many potential buyers as possible, in turn maximizing the ability to sell. PRG began as a full service residential real estate business, and intentionally grew into its current state which is suited to handle any aspect of realty. Starting with our roots in residential gave us a different take on customer service and attentiveness. Residential is a 24/7 job, where many commercial (only) brokerages typically have more traditional M-F 8-5 hours. We're typically available for business calls / inquiries from 8am-10pm, 7 days a week. This means we are able to offer impeccable service almost all the time!

Wholesale and distribution businesses are a pivotal part of the supply chain, operating in-between product manufacturers and retailer businesses. These businesses purchase goods in large quantities directly from manufacturers or producers, benefiting from lower costs per unit, and then redistribute these goods in smaller quantities to various outlets, or in some cases, individual customers.
Whether you are considering buying or selling a wholesale and distribution business, having some context is important for evaluating individual businesses relative to the market. To that end, we have aggregated business for sale listing data of wholesale and distribution businesses and surfaced key financial metrics and valuation multiples based on asking prices.

How do I value a wholesale and distribution business?
Valuing a business involves considering several factors, including annual sales, profit, growth (or decline) trends, and demographic trends of the local market. Brokers, business owners, and business buyers will typically rely on valuation multiples to gauge business value relative to similar businesses in the market. Revenue multiples among wholesale and distribution businesses listed for sale range from 0.38 to 0.92, with the median at 0.58. Earnings multiples range from 2.33 to 3.97, with the median at 3.07. These values suggest a typical wholesale and distribution business in the U.S. may sell for around 0.58 times its annual revenue, and 3.07 times its annual owner’s earnings.
