Asking prices for a business in Mauritius, sector by sector

What is publicly on sale, counted

These are counts we read off the pages ourselves on 12 September 2026. They move week to week. Two of the three sources put a human check in front of the page, so a link may ask you to tick a box first.

Most of those prices are a different deal

A premises-and-goodwill sale moves the lease, the fittings, the stock and the trade name. A share deal moves the company itself, with its registry number, its accounts, its contracts and its payroll.

Both are legitimate and the first one is well served in Mauritius. They simply do not price the same way, and nothing on those pages tells you which one you are reading.

That is the whole reason Blue Mango exists. A restaurant group with twenty staff and filed accounts belongs here. A single counter sold with its lease belongs on the sites above, and they do that job well.

Sector by sector, what the public pages cover

Read this as a map of where public supply sits today, not as a price table. The sectors below are the ones we could see described on the listing pages themselves.

• Retail units and stock-in-trade, the most common category by count on the property portals.
• Restaurants and food outlets, several in the north around Grand Baie.
• Gyms, wellness and beauty premises.
• Mixed commercial buildings bundling several trades with guesthouse rooms above.
• On SMERGERS instead: warehousing, financial services, information technology and enterprise software, education franchising, cosmetics.
• Barely visible anywhere: manufacturing, logistics and freight, engineering, distribution, business process outsourcing — the companies with the payrolls.

The one share-deal figure we could actually see

Across every public source, we found a single Mauritian share-deal price stated openly. A Port Louis financial-services business asked USD 2.5M for a 40% stake.

One data point is not a benchmark and we will not dress it up as one. It is here because it shows how little of this market is visible.

An asking price is not a sold price

Every figure on this page is what someone hopes to get. The number that would actually help you is what the last comparable company sold for, and in Mauritius nobody publishes that.

We are collecting it the only honest way. When a Seller marks a Listing sold, we ask two optional questions: the final price band and how long the sale took.

Where our own benchmark stands today

Blue Mango has no sector benchmark of its own yet, because our Listings are only now going live. Publishing a table built on three companies would be worse than publishing nothing.

This page fills as verified Listings arrive: turnover, staff, region and asking price, by sector, with the date each one cleared the Admission check.

Until then, treat the counts above as the honest state of the public market, and treat any Mauritian multiple you are quoted as unsourced.
