FAQs
How much does it cost to buy a retail business?

How much do local retail business owners earn?

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.
