What We Do

We’ve seen many liquor stores change hands without a clear process. Inventory counts don’t always match the POS, pricing can be outdated, and both sides are left without the full picture. That leads to confusion and missed opportunities.

If you’re listing a liquor store for sale or looking to buy one, our new marketplace connects qualified buyers and sellers while bringing structure to the process. We verify POS and inventory data, help resolve discrepancies, and support a smooth transition from start to finish.

How the Process Works

1. Set the Goals

We start by connecting with the seller and potential buyers to outline goals, expectations, and what’s needed for a liquor store sale and smooth ownership transition.

2. Set the Plan

Once we understand your situation, we lay out a clear process tailored to the store. This includes reviewing inventory, checking pricing, and organizing records for review.

3. Verify the Data

Our system pulls real-time inventory and sales data directly from the POS. Both parties can see exactly what’s included in the sale, with nothing left to guesswork.

4. Resolve Discrepancies

If anything is off—like quantities, pricing, or reports—we help both sides sort it out before closing. We make sure the details are accurate and agreed upon.

5. Deliver the Reports

Once everything checks out, we provide clear, professional reports for both the buyer and seller.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How do you determine the value of a liquor store for sale?
Calculate normalized seller’s discretionary earnings, add current inventory and tangible assets, and adjust for location, lease terms, licenses, and comparable sales.
Common methods include using a multiple of seller’s discretionary earnings (SDE), asset-based valuation of inventory, equipment, and real estate, and comparing to recent similar store sales.
Compare a physical count to the POS inventory, verify item-level pricing, and resolve discrepancies. Both parties agree and sign off on the final inventory report before closing.
Ask for financial statements, inventory reports, POS accuracy proof, lease terms, licenses, supplier contracts, outstanding liabilities, reason for sale, and local competition.
Yes. We supply inventory and sales reports and help prepare required transfer forms. However, we do not perform formal business appraisals.
