Multiple on Supplement Company?

by a searcher from University of Pennsylvania - The Wharton School

2 weeks ago

Hello all,
Seen some posts in the past, but asking again for updated numbers. Does anyone have experience in the supplements industry? I am most curious about EBITDA multiples. 
Some basic information:
20+ year company; strong brand name
They do sell via wholesale (thefeed, amazon) but majority of sales are DTC from the company. 
Any and all help/perspective is appreciated!

Try checking out NAICS code###-###-#### using the BVR transaction link on the Searchfunder page. Most of our supplement multiples are under this code. Food Health Supplement retailers. Didn't find much in wholesale but you can find some transaction using manufacturing codes as well. https://www.searchfunder.com/bvr/sector/514
