We're Melbourne business buyers with our own capital, ready to purchase profitable businesses across Greater Victoria. No listing fees, no broker commissions, no public listings, no tyre-kickers.
Our Direct Purchase Approach
We buy established, profitable businesses across Melbourne and Greater Victoria. Here's what makes us different from other buyers and brokers.
We Have the Capital
We're not brokers looking for buyers - we are the buyers. Our capital is ready, which means faster decisions and quicker settlements.
Quality Over Quantity
We focus on profitable, well-run businesses. We're not interested in distressed sales or businesses with major problems - we want quality operations.
Flexible Structures
Full buyout, partial ownership, silent partnerships, or profit-sharing. We structure deals that work for both parties, not just us.
Speed & Efficiency
No waiting for buyer approval or financing. We can move from initial discussion to settlement in 6-12 weeks, not 18+ months.
We Care About Legacy
Your business is your life's work. We respect that and work to ensure it continues to thrive under our ownership, often keeping key staff and culture.
Local Melbourne Focus
We're Melbourne-based and focussed on Greater Victoria businesses. We understand the local market and can meet face-to-face.
Success Stories
Melbourne business owners who chose the direct route
"After 15 years running my café in Richmond, I was completely burnt out. ZAG made me an offer within 3 weeks and let me stay on part-time to help with the transition. No broker fees meant I kept an extra $45K."
"Health issues forced me to sell quickly. ZAG's private process meant my competitors never knew, and I got a fair price without months of stress. The whole process took 8 weeks."
"Retirement was calling but I didn't want to abandon my team. ZAG found a structure where I retained 20% equity and they kept everyone on. Perfect solution for everyone."
Why Sell Direct to ZAG Instead of Using Brokers?
Business brokers in Australia charge 6-10% commission and take an average of 18 months to sell - 80% of listed businesses never sell at all.
