The seller has the opportunity to disseminate her/his offer across France by preserving the confidentiality of the assessment carried out by the advisers as well as the identity of the seller.

The simplified search tool allows the buyer to select companies on sale by industry sector and geographic area. Advanced research requires more precise criteria: keywords, company size, type of items sold, and selling price. The offers are reliable as they have been assessed by advisers from the Chamber of Craft Trades. 

A package of services is proposed, including advice to both buyers and sellers, assessment of the sold business, publication of the offers and assistance to the parties involved during the sale and follow-up support for the buyer during the first months after the sale. To avail of these services, sellers are required to register to the local chamber of craft trades and pay some reduced fee. The services are however free of charge for buyers.

The website also provides with different resources to support buyers and sellers: handbooks, technical fiches, guides, videos, organisation of events, etc. These resources are made available thanks to the 'Réseau Transmettre et Reprendre' putting together eight different national bodies, all of them being involved in business transfer issues, including of course the APCMA.
