On the streets of Greek cities and villages, it is a common, sad sight. A sign that once wrote "For Sale Business" next to a communication phone, replaced some time after a faded "rented" or, worse yet, by a hermetically closed door with a simple indication: "Closed". This scenario is repeated thousands of times every year throughout Greece, with more than 22,000+ viable Greek companies being forced to shut down their operation unnecessarily, instead of going into the next hands. Why is this happening? Why do so many years of effort, so many investment in labor and money, so many jobs, end up simply eradicating themselves? The Bizfinder.gr, we firmly believe that this is not just a statistical element. It is a loss – human, economic, social. And our mission is to change it.
The problem is not always the lack of interest or the lack of prospective buyers. On the contrary, there is often interest, there is a willingness to invest and entrepreneurship. The problem lies in the way the business transfer market operates in Greece today. It is a market fragmented, opaque and full of obstacles that prevent meaningful connections.
Imagine an owner, perhaps someone who thinks he's selling a retirement business after decades of hard work. He wants to secure a decent income for his departure and, most importantly, to see his business continue. What choice does he have? It can address a traditional broker, with high supplies and limited network. It can put an ad on a general small ads website or a real estate portal who just has a business charge. He can even try his luck on a Facebook team.
This is where the dead end lies. On these general platforms, ads for Business for Sale are lost within thousands of other advertisements for real estate, cars or used items. Specialization is zero. Even worse, these platforms are open to everyone, without any filtering. This leads to the phenomenon of "tire kickers" – people with no serious interest or financial potential, sending messages from simple curiosity or to "fish" information.
Business owners, knowing this, are perfectly justified in reluctant to publish critical details about their business. How to upload revenue, expense, profitability or even the exact location, when they know that these will become visible to anyone, without filtering? This lack of trust and transparency creates a vicious circle: advertisements are lacking in information, serious buyers are disappointed and they do not find what they need, and sellers, taking only frivolous questions, abandon the effort. The result? The sign "For Sale" is removed, and "Closed" is placed in place.
Every time a viable business closes instead of being transferred, the loss is multiple. It is a loss to the owner who does not use the value of a life of labor. It's a loss to workers who lose their jobs. It is a loss to the local community that loses a living economic unit. And it is a loss to the Greek economy itself, which loses a source of production, employment and investment. Think of how many ideas, how many plans for growth, how many jobs are lost simply because the right person did not find the right business at the right time.
