Food Product Manufacturing Business Valuation Benchmarks
FAQs
How much does it cost to buy a food product manufacturing business?
The cost to purchase a food manufacturing company can vary significantly based on location, size, and revenue, but the median asking price for the businesses analyzed is approximately $377,500.
How much do these business owners earn?
Food product manufacturing business owners report a median annual revenue of $630,000 and median annual earnings of $150,000. This represents seller's discretionary earnings, which include the owner’s salary and any additional financial benefits the owner receives.
How do I value a food product manufacturer?
Valuing a food manufacturing company typically involves assessing its annual revenue and earnings, then comparing it to similar businesses selling or recently sold. Buyers and sellers typically start by applying valuation multiples derived from similar businesses that are selling or recently sold.
Food product manufacturers listed for sale are asking revenue multiples ranging from 0.41 to 0.99, with a median of 0.59. Earnings multiples range from 2.05 to 3.58, with the median at 2.58. This means the average food manufacturer may sell for around 0.59 times its annual revenue, and 2.58 times its annual owner earnings.
