Any type of business can file for Chapter 7 bankruptcy, which is a liquidation bankruptcy that wipes out most of business debts. This is actually a good move for businesses that are debt-ridden and have little income--businesses that have income so inadequate that there is little chance of being able to repay debts and continue running. While there may still be some debts left to pay, in many cases Chapter 7 can be a business's best move.
