Ernest Wilson offers over 2000 businesses for sale in Yorkshire, Lancashire, Derbyshire, Lincolnshire, Cheshire and Cumbria. If you are looking to buy a business or you have a business to sell, youre in the right place. Buying or selling a business is certainly one of the most important decisions you will ever make and it is vital that you choose a professional agent with the experience and strong ethical standards to ensure that your interests are protected.
We have acted as agent in the sale of literally thousands of businesses. Our valuers have over 100 years combined experience in valuing businesses ranging between a minimum of 15 years to 40 years. No other Business Transfer Agent can match the experience of our Valuers who are all professionally qualified and Ernest Wilson is a member firm of the NAEA and the Institution of Commercial and Business Agents (ICBA).
Established in 1956 by Ernest Wilson, we are now the largest, independent Business Transfer Agent in the United Kingdom and we firmly believe that you only become the biggest by providing the very best possible service to clients.
During the past 54 years we have led the business transfer industry and there has been many firsts. We were the first business transfer agent to invest heavily into computer systems in the early 1980’s with an IBM System 36 “main frame” computer and we have continued to invest heavily into our business to achieve the best possible results for clients. Not only by investing in computer systems, although during 2009/2010 we have developed an entirely new system to keep us ahead of our competitors; but also into substantial advertising of businesses for sale in both traditional, print media, radio advertising and new media such as the internet.
Ernest Wilson was a pioneer of the business transfer industry who built our company upon professionalism, principled conduct and the highest ethical standards. These founding principles continue to guide us in everything we do today.
