FAQs
How much does it cost to buy a business route?
Prices vary depending on the scale and profitability, but the median asking price for a business route in the U.S. is approximately $171,900.
How much do business route owners earn?
Business routes vary in scale, but owners report median annual sales of $533,260 and annual owner earnings of $104,050. These figures are based on businesses that have listed their annual revenue and seller's discretionary earnings.
How do I value a business route?
Valuing a business route involves considering several factors, including locations served, annual sales, profit, and growth (or decline) trends. 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 business routes listed for sale range from 0.28 to 0.82, with the median at 0.63. Earnings multiples range from 1.02 to 3.20, with the median at 1.84. These values suggest the average business route in the U.S. may sell for around 0.63 times its annual revenue, and 1.84 times its annual owner's earnings.
