Buy or Sell a Manufacturing Business
Companies that "make something" are always in demand, and U.S. manufacturing is growing, despite the decades long march towards offshore production. Some of the most popular categories include:
- Apparel Manufacturing
- Chemical Manufacturing
- Electronics Manufacturers
- Food Manufacturing
- Furniture Manufacturing
- Lumber & Wood Manufacturers
- Metal Manufacturing
- Paper & Packaging
- Sign Manufacturing
The manufacturing sector is resilient, and less affected by broader market trends. Asking prices and valuations have been steady through the pandemic years and continually command an average valuation multiple of 3 times seller earnings.
Whether you are considering buying or selling a manufacturing 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 manufacturing businesses, and surface key financial metrics and valuation multiples based on asking prices.
