Confidential M&A advisory · Spas & wellness centres · Singapore

Sell your business without a word getting out.

A confidential way for owners of Singapore spas, wellness centres and medi-spas to understand what the business is worth and explore a sale. No listing, no market chatter, and nothing public until you decide.

A private read on your number. No commitment, no call required, nothing on the record.

What owners tell us

You built it. Now you want a quiet way out.

Most owners we speak to have spent years building what they have. When they start to think about selling, the same three worries surface. We take all three off your plate, in this order.

The first worry

Staff and clients finding out

Nothing is listed, nothing is named. Your therapists and your clients hear about a sale from you, on your timing, never from the market.

The second worry

Leaving money on the table

Most owners guess at their number. We start with a clear, evidence-based view of value and prepare your financials so a buyer pays for what the business is genuinely worth.

The third worry

The deal falling through

A signed offer is the easy part. We run the process to completion, including the awkward steps, so it holds together to the end rather than drifting and dying.

How we protect you

Confidentiality is the starting point, not an add-on.

The promise should feel concrete, not like a slogan. Here is exactly how your name, your team and your clients stay protected until you are ready.

Buyers see nothing until they sign

Your business is shown only after a buyer has signed an NDA and you have approved them by name. No open marketplace, no broker board.

Materials are code-named

Early documents carry a reference code, not your name or address, so nothing identifying circulates while interest is being gauged.

Nothing moves without your say-so

You approve every step and every buyer before they learn who you are. The process runs at your pace, never ahead of it.

What your business is worth

A properly argued number protects your price.

Wellness businesses are frequently discounted because the earnings look promotion-led and the package book is opaque. We normalise the accounts, separate recurring from campaign revenue, and quantify the prepaid liabilities so the number holds up.

01

Earnings and add-backs

We normalise your financials so the buyer sees the true earning power of the business, not the owner's personal lens on it.

02

Package book and unearned revenue

Prepaid treatment packages are cash you have already banked and service the buyer must still deliver. We size that book precisely so it is priced fairly rather than used to cut the number late.

03

Therapist retention and lease

Trained therapists are hard to replace and clients follow them. Team tenure and remaining lease tenure both feed directly into what a buyer will pay.

Why Clearmere

A deep pool of the right buyers

We approach wellness and spa groups, aesthetics and hospitality operators and owner-buyers quietly, the people who understand the model and pay for a clean book.

We manage the hard transfers

Lease novation, prepaid package liabilities, therapist retention, equipment finance and supplier terms are handled early, not surfaced late and left to break trust.

Discretion by default

Your name stays out of the market until an NDA is signed. No public listing, no broker board, nothing your team can stumble on.

You deal with the founder

You work directly with Ben from start to finish. No being handed to a junior once the engagement begins.

Certainty of completion

Our job is a deal that closes, not a listing that lingers for a year. We manage the path from offer to a clean close.

An operator's eye on risk

We read the things a generalist broker misses, the dependencies a buyer probes and that quietly cut a price if ignored.

The team behind 70+ owner-operated transactions across Singapore, now extending the same playbook to established businesses across sectors.

How it works

Four quiet steps to a clean close.

01

A confidential valuation

Start with a short questionnaire by email, under NDA. For a fixed fee, we tell you honestly what your business is worth and what would lift it.

02

A clear picture of your options

If a sale fits, we agree the approach. If the timing is wrong, we can stay on as your adviser and get the business ready to sell.

03

A quiet, targeted process

We approach the right buyers discreetly, each NDA-gated and approved by you. Never the open market.

04

A clean completion

We manage due diligence, licence and lease transfer, and the difficult conversations, through to signing.

Questions owners ask

Straight answers, before you speak to anyone.

How do I sell my spa or wellness centre confidentially in Singapore?

Off-market and NDA-gated. Nothing is publicly listed, early materials carry a reference code instead of your business name and address, and buyers see identifying details only after signing an NDA you have approved. You decide when your therapists and clients are told.

How is a spa or wellness business valued?

On normalised earnings, tested hard for repeatability. Buyers separate recurring client revenue from promotion-driven spikes, treat unexpired prepaid packages as a liability they inherit, and look closely at therapist tenure because clients follow their therapist. Remaining lease tenure and the state of the fit-out also feed the number. We give you a written valuation under NDA, for a fixed fee credited against our success fee if you sell with us.

Do prepaid packages affect what I can sell for?

Yes. The buyer inherits the obligation to deliver treatments already paid for, so the package book is priced into the deal. Sized and presented early it is simply an agreed line. Discovered in due diligence it becomes a reason to reprice, which is the single most common way a wellness deal loses value late.

Who buys spas and wellness centres in Singapore?

Wellness and spa groups adding locations, aesthetics operators broadening their offering, hospitality groups adding a wellness arm, and individual owner-buyers. Each reads the same business differently, which is why a quiet competitive process usually beats the first approach.

What does Clearmere charge?

Our sale fee is success-based and paid on completion: no sale, no fee. A written valuation is a separate fixed fee, agreed and paid before we start, and credited in full against our success fee if you sign with us within 6 months and the sale completes. The first conversation, a short questionnaire and our written recommendation on which valuation fits are free and carry no obligation.

My therapists are the business. How do I protect the sale?

Treat retention as part of the deal rather than a hope. Buyers commonly use transition periods, retention terms or deferred consideration where client relationships sit with named therapists. Putting it on the table at the start, with a plan, protects the price better than letting a buyer raise it late.
