Selling Service

If you are considering selling your business then look no further. Either contact us directly by telephone or email (admin@therestaurantagency.com) to arrange a mutually convenient time for us to visit you at your premises. We are aware in most instances of the confidential nature of any discussions and can meet on or off site or before service if necessary depending on staffing sensitivity.

Below is a brief guide to getting your business on the market.

  1. A prompt inspection (visit) to your business premises at an agreed date and time to ascertain a market price for your business or to discuss information required to assess a guide price.
  2. An email confirming our planned marketing approach with terms and conditions (and all relevant costs) sent within 3 days of our visit along with a checklist of statutory documentation required to aid the sale process.
  3. If agreed confirmation of instructions in writing via our terms of business and agency agreement/mandate forwarded to us by email or post.
  4. Your business will be placed on this website within 7-14 days of formal instruction unless discussed otherwise.

A visit to your premises to discuss the potential marketing will generally take no longer than 1 hour and is without obligation on either party.

Acquisition Service

We also offer an acquisition service which allows new or existing operators to tap into our local market knowledge to help secure the purchase or lease of chosen premises through direct vendor contact via the agency or via other agent contact. This allows for a discreet purchase where the corporate or individual entity can remain unidentified thus potentially avoiding a competitive bidding or price bargaining situation.

For further details contact us to discuss your Personal Acquisition Brief and to set up a meeting where fees can be discussed. This is a very popular and cost effective service for individuals, corporate operators and smaller group restaurateurs.
