If you own a consignment or resale business, you may have heard the term BVA - Business Value Assessment. A BVA is more than a number. It’s a detailed look at what your business is really worth today, plus the opportunities that could raise its value tomorrow.
For resale business owners, a BVA matters because:
1. Inventory isn’t owned the same way it is in boutiques, so value is based on data, systems, and sell-through.
2. Your consignor database is an asset and buyers want proof it’s active and engaged.
3. Expense ratios and payout structures can add or subtract thousands from your value.
4. Your brand, loyal staff, and customer base often matter more than fixtures or inventory.
5. Whether you plan to sell soon or years down the road, a BVA shows you exactly where you stand and how to build a stronger, more sellable business. It’s not just a valuation - it’s a roadmap.
