Search and approach buyers yourself
MANDA is one of Japan’s largest M&A search engines. Beyond listing and waiting, you can search acquisition criteria by industry, region, or keyword and proactively approach the buyers that interest you.
Completely free from listing to closing
Zero listing fees, upfront fees, monthly charges, and success fees. MANDA is funded by paid tools for advisory firms and by advertising, so listing companies never pay.

Closed deals on MANDA
Three business-succession stories that began with a listing and ended with the right partner — from background to closing, in the owners’ own words.
Closed · Share transferA 40-year-old workshop with proprietary die-making technology. The owner, in his mid-60s, had no successor and faced heavy equipment-renewal costs; winding down the business was on the table.
An anonymous listing on MANDA drew 8 inquiries within two weeks. The company was sold via share transfer to a listed group in the same industry, every employee kept their job, and the owner stayed on as an advisor for two years to pass on his expertise.
“I thought closing down was the only option. Keeping both the technology and my people — it truly took a weight off my shoulders.”
Closed · Business transferA popular restaurant group with three locations in Osaka. The 58-year-old owner was considering retirement over health concerns and wanted above all to avoid closing, for the sake of regulars and staff.
The business was transferred to a restaurateur in his 40s who runs a dining chain. The trade name, all 24 staff, and the recipes carried over — and the restaurants are thriving as ever.
“We kept the restaurants alive for our regulars and our staff. Nothing matters more than that.”
Closed · Business transfer + capital allianceThe company ran contract development alongside its own SaaS. The 45-year-old CEO wanted to sell only the contract division to concentrate resources on the fast-growing SaaS business.
The contract business was transferred to an operating company together with a capital alliance. Twelve engineers moved over, the SaaS business kept growing in-house, and zero fees maximized the proceeds.
“We achieved real focus — with zero fees. The proceeds went straight into our next stage of growth.”

Aren’t brokerage fees too high?
On MANDA, everything from listing to closing is completely free.
| Typical M&A brokers | Typical M&A platforms | MANDA | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Listing fee | From ¥300K upfront | ¥0 | ¥0 |
| Upfront fee | From ¥1M | ¥0 | ¥0 |
| Monthly retainer | From ¥100K/mo | ¥0 | ¥0 |
| Success fee | 5% of sale price (min. ¥5M–¥20M) | From 3% of sale price (sometimes charged to sellers) | ¥0 |
* Broker and platform figures are general estimates. Fee structures vary by firm.
Buyers pay nothing either — so your sale price can go higher.
On MANDA, buyers pay no fees, just like sellers. The money a buyer would have spent on brokerage fees can go straight into the purchase price, so you can expect a higher sale price than through a broker.
