What They Say
“In the world of business buying and selling, finding a reliable, intuitive, and well-structured tool is as rare as finding a company with its books in order at first glance. Sherlok is exactly what we were looking for. As an M&A broker, I use various platforms daily for sourcing opportunities and managing mandates. Sherlok stands out for the quality of its published company profiles, the clarity of the information made available, and — not a minor aspect — a very friendly user experience. Navigation is clean, search filters are relevant and functional, and you can sense that behind the platform there is a clear vision of what truly matters to those who work seriously in this sector. It is not a generic showcase, but an environment designed for professionals who want to get straight to the point — and who know how to tell the difference between a real opportunity and an improvised listing. Another credit goes to the seriousness of the people on the platform: motivated sellers, documentation that is more accurate than average, and an overall setup that fosters dialogue between parties without unnecessary distractions. In summary: Sherlok does not disappoint — and in our industry, that alone is an achievement. Recommended without reservation to anyone operating in business transactions with a structured and professional approach.”“In the world of business buying and selling, finding a reliable, intuitive, and well-structured tool is as rare as finding a company with its books in order at first glance.

FAQ
Cosa è Sherlok?
Sherlok is the portal that makes it easier to buy or sell SMEs and commercial businesses. The platform promotes quality interactions between genuinely interested buyers and sellers, thanks to a system of credits, verifications, and access levels. Furthermore, Sherlok provides a network of selected professionals, ready to assist you in the various stages of the sale.
Devo pagare per usare Sherlok?
Buying is free: you create an account and get 5 credits. One credit unlocks a seller’s contact details, two or three for higher-value listings. The free Basic plan shows listings up to €400,000; the cap is lifted by becoming a Verified Buyer, which is free, or with the optional Premium plan, which also adds 100 credits a month. Publishing a listing is not free: it requires a seller plan, paid once for the whole duration, with credits already included. Current plans and prices are on the Pricing page.
C'è una commissione per le vendite effettuate tramite il vostro marketplace?
No, we do not apply commissions on sales.
Quali attività posso mettere in vendita?
You can put all commercial activities up for sale, as long as they have a valid VAT number and are legally registered.
Come posso contattare il venditore?
Seller contact details are visible only after unlocking the listing with credits. Sellers will provide a phone number or email address you can use to contact them, or alternatively, there is also the internal chat on the site.
Come funzionano le trattative e le transazioni?
Negotiations and transactions take place between the buyer and seller. We take care of connecting the parties and making the process transparent and secure.
