Businesses for sale in Pakistan

Shortlist listings on BusinessForSale.pk and compare asking price, monthly profit, payback period, rent and lease. Sign in and accept the NDA on a listing to see the business name, exact address and actual figures, then send an enquiry. Our desk qualifies your interest, introduces you to the owner and guides due diligence, the sale agreement and handover.

Prices depend on profit, location, lease and licences. Most small businesses sell for a multiple of their annual seller's discretionary earnings (SDE), plus stock at cost. Every listing shows the asking price, the monthly profit range and the payback period so you can compare like for like.

Our team visited the business and checked six things: the owner's identity, sales evidence (POS exports, bank or wallet statements), the lease and landlord position, licences, liabilities, and the site itself. A senior team member signs off before the seal appears. It reduces risk but doesn't replace your own due diligence.

Most small running businesses are priced on seller's discretionary earnings (SDE) — profit plus the owner's salary and personal expenses run through the business — times an industry multiple, then adjusted for lease, licences, equipment and location. Stock is usually added at cost at handover.

Yes, after you sign in and accept a confidentiality agreement (NDA) on the listing. Sellers keep their identity private from staff, suppliers and competitors until a serious buyer has signed it, which is why the public listing only shows the category, area and ranges.

Payback is how many years of profit it takes to recover the asking price; annual return is the yearly profit as a percentage of the price. We calculate both from the middle of the stated monthly profit range. They're a quick way to compare deals, not a guarantee of future profit.

Sales evidence such as POS exports, bank or wallet statements against what the owner reports. Lease length, rent increases and the landlord's consent to transfer. Licences and whether they transfer to you. Liabilities: supplier dues, utility arrears and staff dues. Ask for the documents behind every number and visit at different times of day.

Sales records (POS, bank or wallet statements), Supplier invoices, Rent agreement and landlord's consent to transfer, Owner CNIC and business registration, Bank or mobile-wallet statements for the last 6–12 months. On Verified listings our team has already reviewed these, and you can see them during due diligence.

Usually not. Stock is counted at handover and paid for at cost, separately from the asking price, unless the listing says otherwise. Near-expiry, damaged or obsolete stock should be excluded or discounted in the stock-take.

The rent agreement normally moves to you with the landlord's consent, or the landlord signs a new agreement with you. Each listing shows the months remaining and whether the landlord has given written consent, which is one of the first things to confirm.

Depends on the industry: commonly a trade licence plus any sector licence (for example drug sale or food). Some licences transfer directly, some must be re-issued in your name, and some are tied to the premises. We confirm the route for each listing during due diligence.

Often, and it's usually good for the business. Listings note whether staff are willing to stay. Settle any staff dues before handover and agree new terms in writing.

Typically a few weeks from first enquiry to handover, depending on due diligence, landlord consent and licence transfer. Simple share-of-shop deals can move faster; anything needing an authority's approval takes longer.
