Sell Your Business in Greece
If you are thinking “I want to sell my business”, good preparation makes the difference in price and time to sale. This guide covers the steps of the process, how a business is valued, what information a buyer will ask for and how confidentiality is protected with an NDA.
How to sell your business
- List the business with an anonymous title and description — no name or address.
- The Exagora team reviews the listing before it is published.
- Interested buyers activate access and sign an NDA for that specific listing.
- Only then do they see the documents in the Data Room and can message you or make an offer.
- You negotiate on the platform (up to three counter-offers per side) until you agree.
Confidentiality
The public listing is anonymous: it shows only the category, general area, asking price and a description without identifying details. The business name, exact address and detailed financials are not shown — not even to search engines; they open only to verified buyers after they sign an NDA.
How a business is valued
Small and medium businesses are usually valued as a multiple of their earnings — EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) or, for very small businesses, the owner’s earnings. For example, a business with €80,000 EBITDA and a multiple of 3 is valued at around €240,000.
The multiple rises with stable, growing revenue, recurring income, low dependence on a few customers or on the owner, and documented processes. It falls when earnings are volatile or hard to verify. Equipment, stock and the premises lease also affect the price.
What information you need to sell a business
- Financial statements and tax returns for the last 2–3 years
- Current-year revenue, costs and EBITDA
- Premises lease and operating licences
- Equipment and stock list
- Staff, contracts and key suppliers
- Outstanding liabilities, loans or legal cases
How the NDA works
The non-disclosure agreement (NDA) binds the buyer not to use or disclose the information they see. On Exagora it is signed electronically for each listing separately, with the signature recorded, and only then are the name and documents revealed.
How to prepare a business for sale
- Tidy up the accounts so earnings are easy to verify.
- Reduce dependence on you: document processes and train staff.
- Renew or extend the premises lease if it is close to expiry.
- Set a realistic price based on earnings — try Exagora’s free valuation.

Frequently asked questions
Will customers or staff find out I am selling?
Not from the listing. The public listing shows only the category, general area, asking price and an anonymous description. The name and detailed figures are shown only to buyers who have signed an NDA.
How much does listing cost?
Exagora charges the seller a success fee only when the sale closes. The fee schedule is shown on the seller pricing page.
How long does selling a business take?
It depends on the sector, size and preparation. A small business with well-organised financials usually sells faster, because the buyer can complete due diligence more easily.
Can I sell part of my business?
Yes. When listing you choose the deal type: full sale, partial sale, merger, investment or licensing of rights.
