Live auction back in Moerdijk
When Covid-19 broke out, Ritchie Bros. pivoted to online auctions, leveraging its popular and easy-to-use Timed Auction system. For this special, episodic event in Moerdijk, Ritchie Bros.’ auctioneers and bid catchers will be returning to Moerdijk to sell a large selection of equipment on the first two days of the auction. Other items will be sold via convenient online Timed Auctions that are open to bid for several days and closing at staggered times during the auction days.
Insights session with industry experts
On Tuesday October 10th at 2 PM, Ritchie Bros. will be hosting an Insights session at Moerdijk Live Xperience, featuring presentations and panel discussion with leading industry experts. Among them are Sebastian Popp (CECE), Chris Sleight (Off-Highway Research) and Alex Schuessler (SmartEquip). The session will cover the biggest trends that are impacting the heavy equipment industry in Europe in 2023 and what we can expect for 2024.
