Sell your restaurants business in Richmond

Canadian restaurants are notoriously difficult to sell well. Most owners get less than they should because they list on Kijiji, attract tire-kickers, and let competing operators learn their financials. We run confidential restaurant sales using anonymized teasers, NDA-gated CIMs, and a buyer database of independent operators, franchise groups, family offices and immigrants seeking PNP-qualifying businesses.

In Richmond: Aberdeen, Lansdowne, Steveston, and Cambie sub-markets each have distinct character. Chinese-cuisine restaurants are the deepest sub-segment in Canada. Professional services in Chinese languages command premium.
