There are thousands of local shops and newsagents across the UK, and we help them to change hands regularly. If you need a trusted business broker to help you find your ideal buyer, Hilton Smythe is the nation’s number one for good reason. If you think it’s time for a change, we’ll show you how stress-free selling can be.
There are many different reasons why business owners decide to put their business on the market. Running a newsagents requires a lot of time investment, and it’s not always possible to give a business the time it requires to be successful. For example, if a business owner is suffering from poor health or needs to look after a family member, they may have to sacrifice the business.
One of the most popular reasons for selling up is retirement. You’ve probably worked long hours over a number of years, so you’ve earned yourself a nice long retirement! If the business owner can’t pass the business on to a family member or they want to sell the business to fund their retirement, then it’s important to choose a good time to sell to get the most value.
You’ve done the years of hard work building a successful business – now let us take care of selling it for you. We’ll do all the leg work to find a suitable buyer and explain everything you need to know about the business transfer.
When choosing a business broker it’s important to consider how many registered buyers they have to advertise to – and if they would be interested in buying a small newsagents like yours. At Hilton Smythe we have a huge database of people looking to buy a business like yours, but we also advertise commercial properties on over 30 marketing platforms to further extend our reach.
