"BizBuySell.com, the internet's largest business-for-sale marketplace reported that small business transactions grew 49 percent in 2013 compared to 2012. The San Francisco-based company has over 1 million monthly visitors and releases its Insight Report quarterly. Closed transactions are reported to the company on a voluntary basis by business brokers nationwide.
The full year totals represent the first year of extreme improvement in business sales since levels reached record lows in 2009. In 2013, 7,056 small business sales were reported, a significant spike over 4,730 transactions reported in 2012.
Ironically, the improvement was led by exceptional growth in restaurant and retail markets, two industries which traditionally trail other categories. Yearly restaurant transactions rose 78 percent and retail business 71 percent in 2013, compared to 2012."
