Frequently asked questions

Are you a broker?

No. We are a directory. We list manufacturing businesses for sale, pass your enquiry to the seller, and take no part in the transaction. We do not hold funds, we do not take a commission on a sale, and we are not agents for either side.

What does it cost a buyer?

Nothing. Browsing and enquiring are free, and there is no buyer fee at any point.

What does it cost a seller?

A basic listing is free. Paid placement — featured, spotlight, priority review — is charged as shown on our pricing page, and is clearly labelled as paid wherever it appears. Paying does not buy a "verified" badge or an editor's pick; those are not for sale.

Are the businesses verified?

Figures are supplied by sellers and by the sites we list from, and are not audited by us. Treat every number as a claim to be checked in due diligence, not as fact.

How does an enquiry reach the seller?

You send it from the listing. It reaches us and we pass it to the seller, who replies to you directly — usually from their own address, so the reply may not carry our name. Check your spam folder if you hear nothing.

Can I list without naming my business?

Yes, and many sellers do. See confidentiality.

Do you cover businesses outside my country?

We list worldwide. You can filter by country, region and city on the browse page.
