Florida business-for-sale market data

Counted from the crawl of August 19, 2026. Computed from the database when this page was built — not typed in. Refreshed with the weekly crawl.

What the Florida Main Street market actually looks like — computed from every active listing we track, by county and by industry. Prices, owner earnings, multiples, and the number a lender could actually fund. No estimates, no survey, no "industry rule of thumb".

The whole state, through a lender's screen

• 2,089active listings
• 1,228pay a manager — still earn after a $75,000 market wage
• 366a lender could fund — debt at asking ≤ 3.5× those earnings
• 286offer a document — a tax return or P&L behind the figures
• 228show more than one year — a trend exists at all

The steps are cumulative — each applies on top of the last, the way an acquirer actually works a market.

228 of 2,089 — 11%. That is the real size of the financeable, documented Florida market, and it is the number to hold in your head while a listing site tells you how big its index is. How this screen works →

By county

35 more counties have fewer than 30 active listings each; they are included in every statewide figure. 57 listings withhold their county entirely — a broker's confidentiality decision, counted statewide but mapped nowhere.

By industry

70 more industries sit under the 30-listing floor and are included in the statewide figures.

Every figure on this page is seller-reported and unaudited — the checks behind our statistics test arithmetic, not truth. Medians exclude placeholder prices under $10,000. How the screening works →
