Sell Your Business in Wellington

Located at the southern end of the North Island, Wellington is the capital city of New Zealand. With a population of over 400,000, it is the second most populated urban area of New Zealand. The city has a temperate maritime climate and is considered the world’s windiest city.

Wellington is home to several architectural wonders, including the Government Building, one of the most significant wooden buildings in the world, and the Beehive, an extension wing of the New Zealand Parliament Buildings. The city has countless theatres and hosts many arts and cultural organisations like the New Zealand Symphony Orchestra and the New Zealand Ballet. Add to that, a myriad of cafes and restaurants offering incredible food, and a remarkable creative culture, it’s no wonder Wellington is hailed as the 12th most liveable city in the world.

Wellington’s primary industries are business, finance and government. It is also the country’s centre for film and special effects. Recently, the city has experienced growth in its information technology and network sectors.

How to sell your business in Wellington

You can make costly and painful mistakes if you rush into selling a business without thorough planning and preparation. One of the most important things you need to understand is your motivation to sell. For instance, if you want to sell your business simply because you feel overwhelmed with the financials, you could consider selling part of it; perhaps, find an investor to take on a financial role.

Another smart move is to reach out to the experts in the field. Finding business brokers around your specific industry will allow you to get the best results. As you go through the process, you need to make sure that you interview multiple business brokers before deciding to hire them. Make sure that the broker you hire has previous experience in selling businesses around your industry, and has the sales and marketing systems to support the whole process.
