Catering and Food Auctioneer

We are one of the leading specialist valuers and auctioneers providing a comprehensive range of services to ensure that the full value of surplus or redundant assets are realized, to maximum value, be that by a private treaty, tender or auction.

Our company was launched in February 2003 by two established experts in the auction field - in response to demand for a professional and affordable auction house specializing in selling plant and machinery within the food processing sectors.

Operating solely within the food industry with no associated ‘side’ businesses, we have an in-depth knowledge of the auction marketing and selling process and how the actual machinery works within a ‘live’ production setting. The company offers its clients a consultative, problem-solving service that exceeds what traditional auction houses would generally provide. It is not a dealer auctioneer (or principal): it simply arrives at an accurate value for the items it sells. The service comprises valuation, appraisal, marketing, auction and site clearance, avoiding the hassle that can be involved with selling plant and machinery.

We oversees auction projects from start to finish. As standard, the company provides professional and technical management, a skilled auctioneer, credit risk and management, porters and use of an extensive, bespoke database. Furthermore, its aggressive marketing activities, which draw upon specialist knowledge, include careful targeting of the trade press and extensive use of email and fax campaigns that reach over 200,000 named industry targets / decision makers within the food manufacturing and ancillary sectors.

It is our policy that clients only pay on completion of a successful project: there are no upfront charges or hidden surprises. The fee scale is incentive-based to ensure the best possible results are achieved for clients. This explains why we have so many loyal customers using its services time and time again.

With offices in London and Bath, we are active on client projects throughout the UK and Europe. Its executives are well acquainted with the demands of the global market and travel extensively world-wide. The company employs a full compliment of dedicated staff and outsources its other functions to retained third parties which uphold the highest professional and industry standards. We are member of the National Association of Valuers and Auctioneers (NAVA).
