On this page you'll find listings of businesses and companies for sale in Lombardy: bars and restaurants in Milan, craft and manufacturing firms between Brescia and Bergamo, stores in Brianza, hotels and venues on Lake Como and Lake Garda. Lombardy is Italy's largest regional economy and the most liquid market for anyone buying or selling a business: demand is high and businesses with solid numbers find buyers faster than elsewhere. Use the filters for category, province and price, or widen the search to all businesses for sale in Italy.
Before making an offer check three things: the lease (in Milan the rent and remaining term matter more than anything else, because the property is rarely included), the financial statements or sales of the last 3 years and how much the business depends on the owner. For bars and restaurants the asking price is often between 60% and 120% of annual sales; for structured companies the market thinks in EBITDA multiples, indicatively 3–5 times. For a first estimate you can use the free valuation tool.
Want to sell your business in Lombardy? It's the market with the most active buyers: individuals changing career, industry operators and small expanding groups. You can publish your listing from €37 + VAT, one-off payment, no subscriptions and no commission on the sale, and negotiate directly with the people who get in touch. If you prefer support, the brokers section lists professionals specialized in business transfers.
Frequently asked questions
It depends on the area, the sales and the lease: an established neighborhood bar sells for roughly €80,000 to €150,000, while in central or high-traffic areas prices often exceed €200,000–€400,000. In the province values drop to €40,000–€100,000. Before negotiating, check the electronic sales records of the last 12 months, the rent and the remaining lease term: these are the three variables that really move the price.
Taking over is often better: between refurbishment, permits, build-out and the first months without sales, opening from scratch in Milan easily costs €100,000–€250,000 for a mid-sized venue, with no guarantee of customers. An established business brings demonstrable sales, trained staff and a lease already in place. Opening only makes sense with a genuinely new format or an exceptional location: compare the two routes starting from the real numbers in the listing.
For small retail businesses the starting point is goodwill: a percentage of annual sales (often 60–120% for bars and restaurants) adjusted for rent, location and equipment. For structured companies EBITDA multiples are used: indicatively 3–5 times for retail and services, up to 4–6 for manufacturing with good margins. Inventory, debts and reliance on the owner then come into play. For a first free estimate use the valuation tool, then talk to an accountant.
If you sell as a sole proprietor and have owned the business for more than 5 years, you can opt for separate taxation of the capital gain (tassazione separata, art. 17 TUIR), often cheaper than ordinary income tax. The transfer deed must be executed by a notary (art. 2556 c.c.) and is subject to 3% registration tax (imposta di registro) on the value, normally payable by the buyer unless agreed otherwise. For companies the capital gain forms part of business income. Have your accountant run precise figures before signing.
The steadiest demand is for bars and restaurants in high-traffic areas of Milan and the provincial capitals, craft and engineering firms with a consolidated customer portfolio between Brescia and Bergamo, e-commerce with demonstrable margins and accommodation businesses on the lakes. In general, what sells fastest is what has transparent numbers: books in order, a long lease and a price in line with market multiples.
