Ritchie Bros. Auctioneers Incorporated Company Profile
Forget JFK's desk. Ritchie Bros. Auctioneers handles bids for the truck that hauled it. One of the world's largest industrial auctioneers, the company holds more than 350 auctions a year in 110 offices throughout Asia, Australia, Europe, Central America, the Middle East, and North America. Its "unreserved" auctions (no minimum bids or bids from the seller or auctioneer) include equipment used in the agricultural, construction, forestry, mining, and transportation industries. Ritchie Bros., which receives a percentage of the sale price, also provides translation services and arranges for finance companies to be present at its auctions. The company was established in 1963.
