nessshop.ie is Ireland’s only online
directory committed to supporting business
opportunities. It was created to fill a
void that currently exists for those
seeking to buy or sell a business in
Ireland. Until now, most business owners
used two primary routes for selling their
businesses: expensive, one-off,
mass-market newspaper advertising and/or
enquiries through their accountants. Both
methods are limiting and time-consuming.
On the other hand, those buying businesses
were restricted to placing expensive and
untargeted advertisements, searching
newspapers and trade magazines in the hope
that opportunities will be advertised
there, or to making enquiries through
their own personal network of business
contacts.
thebusinessshop.ie is designed to be the
first port of call for anyone seeking to
buy or sell a business in Ireland. The
website currently incorporates businesses
for sale, franchises and businesses
seeking partners. It is designed for every
size and type of business in Ireland, from
the smallest home-based businesses to
large companies with international
operations.
