Irish Business Portal Selling €200million Worth of Irish Based Business Opportunities

TheBusinessShop.ie after only 3 years in business is currently advertising over 330 business opportunities within the 32 counties valued at over €200 million. This remarkable growth rate has resulted in a high percentage of international traffic, approx. 40% from the Irish Diaspora wishing to return to Ireland. And attracted the likes of leading brokers and accountancy practices to use theBusinessShop.ie to help them source buyers for their clients. They, along with private sellers, recognise that Irish businesses now have a local, national and international platform to maximise their prospective chances of a successful outcome. TheBusinessShop.ie has successfully found purchasers for all spectrums of business activity such as e-commerce, retail, distribution, engineering, food and hospitality based concerns. Over recent times theBusinessShop.ie has expanded to advertising investments, start-ups and commercial properties. This has proved remarkably successful with funding being successfully sourced for everything from an Irish film project to a print firm looking for a partner. Within the next 12 months, theBusinessShop.ie is aiming to become the de-facto source for businesses based in Ireland seeking funding.

TheBusinessShop.ie was founded in 2005 as an online marketplace for business opportunities across the island of Ireland (Republic of Ireland & Northern Ireland).

The idea for the marketplace originated from a challenge the founders experienced while running their first business. In the process of identifying other businesses to purchase to scale their existing business, they discovered that no central resource existed. With this gap pinpointed, the founders quickly set up theBusinessShop.ie to enable businesses all over Ireland to confidentially advertise a variety of opportunities.

Now, visitors to this online marketplace can view a wide variety of business opportunities – businesses for sale, franchises for sales, start-ups seeking funding or indeed established businesses seeking investment or partners. In 2006 alone, Irish business people with opportunities exceeding €86m in value were introduced to buyers and investors at theBusinessShop.ie.

Visitors to the site are typically entrepreneurs, business owners, business brokers, corporate finance advisors, franchisees, accountants, solicitors, private investors and venture capitalists.
