Distribution and retail companies for sale in Mauritius
Importers and wholesalers, and retail groups with several outlets and a payroll. A distribution company is bought for its agencies and its shelf space, not for its shop windows.

No company in this sector has cleared the admission check yet.
Nothing is published before it passes, so this page is empty rather than padded. Tell us what you are looking for and you will hear the day one clears it.
What belongs here
- A registered company with a BRN, two years of accounts, turnover from Rs 12M and staff on payroll.
- Import, wholesale or multi-outlet retail operations with buyers, suppliers and stock in the company.
- Distribution agencies and supplier accounts held by the company, with staff who run the counters.
What does not belong here
A single shop sold with its lease, its fittings and its stock. That is a premises-and-goodwill deal, it is a legitimate market, and classifieds and property sites serve it properly.
What to ask beyond the admission check
- The distribution agreements: exclusivity, territory, term, and whether they survive a change of control.
- Stock on hand, how it is valued, and how much of it has not moved in a year.
- Debtor days and bad debt, because turnover here is often credit.
- For retail, which leases sit in the company and when each one expires.
Be told when one clears the check
One email when a company in this sector passes the admission check. Nothing else, and no payment at any point.
