For business owners
Sell a business privately in the UK.
A discreet alternative to a formal sale process. Review the acquisition mandates already on the register, and open a confidential conversation only where the fit is real.
Most owner-managed sales attract three to five credible buyers. The register is designed to bring those buyers to you without a public marketing process, so staff, customers and suppliers hear nothing while you decide whether a sale is right at all.
How a private sale works on the register
- Review the published mandates, each carries a project reference such as BW000295.
- Where a requirement fits, quote the reference in a short confidential message via our contact form.
- Our team introduces the acquirer under standard confidentiality; you remain anonymous until you choose otherwise.
- Terms, structure and timing are agreed directly with the acquirer, the register does not broker.
Where a formal process is still right
Highly strategic assets, distressed sales and regulated auctions belong in a formal process run by a corporate finance adviser. The register is for the far more common case: a profitable UK SME whose owner wants to preserve optionality until a genuine buyer is in the room.
