myynnissään

Myynnissään is a Finnish phrase used to indicate that a person, company, or asset is for sale. The expression is formed from the noun myynti (sale) with the inessive suffix -issä and the third-person possessive suffix -nsa/-nsä, producing myynnissään. Literally it means “in its sale,” but it is used idiomatically to mean that the subject is being offered for purchase by its owner.

Usage and meaning

The term is most common in business journalism, corporate communications, and real estate or asset listings. It signals that the subject is available for acquisition and that a buyer would engage with the owner or seller. It is typically applied to a company, a business unit, or a significant asset rather than ordinary consumer goods. In headlines and notices, myynnissään conveys a status of being on the market and open to offers.

Relation to other forms

Myynnissään differs from myynnissä, which simply means that something is for sale in a general sense (on sale). The possessive form emphasizes that the sale is connected to the subject itself, often implying that the owner is seeking buyers or negotiating a sale.

Examples

Yhtiö X on myynnissään, ja potentiaaliset ostajat ovat pyytäneet lisätietoja. Kiinteistö Z on myynnissään ja listautuminen markkinoille on suunnitteilla.
