Established in 1998 by Pamela Labelle, Business Exchange emerged from a gap in the market for specialized resources catering to businesses and franchises for sale. What began as a local publication in Toronto, Canada, has since evolved into a thriving omnichannel platform spanning North America.
Today, Business Exchange stands as a premier lead generation platform, connecting buyers and sellers of established businesses, franchises, and commercial real estate. Our transition from a print-focused publication to a dynamic online marketplace reflects our commitment to adaptability and innovation. With a subscriber base exceeding 500,000, Business Exchange boasts the largest database of qualified business buyers in Canada and the United States.
Driven by our mission to be the foremost resource for entrepreneurs and investors, we continually strive to improve and grow. In 2024, our acquisition of BizSold.com further solidified our position as industry leaders, reinforcing our dedication to being the #1 resource for getting businesses, franchises and commercial real estate sold.
