What does buying an online shop mean?
It means taking over an existing e-commerce activity, often with shop, domain, products, customers, suppliers, stock, accounts and processes.
Which data is important?
Revenue, margin, costs, traffic, conversion, average order value, repeat customers, returns, stock, suppliers, technology and access are important.
Why does margin matter?
It shows what remains after purchasing, shipping, payment fees, marketing, returns and platform costs. Revenue alone is not enough.
What role does traffic play?
Traffic shows how customers reach the shop. Stable and diversified sources reduce risk after takeover.
Does stock have to be taken over?
Not always. Stock should be listed separately with value, condition, age, turnover rate, ownership and takeover terms.
What should technical handover include?
Shop, domain, hosting, accounts, payments, tools, integrations, analytics, admin access, files and contracts should be clarified.
How should suppliers be assessed?
Purchase terms, delivery times, exclusivity, minimums, reliability, quality, returns and transferability of relationships are important.
Does company.ch verify shop data?
No. company.ch helps buyers search and make contact, but it does not replace technical, legal or financial review.
