HOW IT WORKS

A Better Way to Buy & Sell Businesses

Our platform replaces the slow, opaque traditional process with a transparent, technology-driven experience for both buyers and sellers.

FOR BUYERS

Your Acquisition Journey

From discovery to closing, here's how you'll find and acquire your next business

STEP 1

Browse & Search

Explore verified business listings across Canada. Use filters for province, industry, price range, revenue, and more. See key financials upfront — no gatekeeping.

STEP 2

View Listing Details

Each listing shows asking price, annual revenue, profit, multiples, employee count, and business age. Get a clear picture before committing.

STEP 3

Sign NDA & Unlock Financials

Interested in a business? Sign a digital NDA to access detailed P&L statements, customer data, lease details, and proprietary information.

STEP 4

Message the Seller

STEP 5

Submit an Offer

Ready to move forward? Submit a formal offer with your proposed price, financing type, timeline, and conditions.
