Über uns

Ritchie Bros. is the world’s largest industrial auctioneer.  Headquartered in Vancouver, Canada, and with regional head offices in Europe and the USA, we have over 110 locations in North America, Europe, the Middle East, Asia and Australia.

Ritchie Bros. Auctioneers began as a family business in Kelowna, Canada. Three brothers -- Dave, Ken and John -- conducted their first auction in 1958, selling $2,000 in inventory from their furniture store to pay a bank debt. Spurred by success, the brothers conducted more auctions, eventually progressing beyond furniture and into industrial equipment.

Today, we are publicly traded on both the TSE and the NYSE.  We sell, through unreserved public auctions, a broad range of used and unused industrial assets, including equipment, trucks and other assets utilized in the construction, transportation, agricultural, material handling, mining, forestry, petroleum and marine industries. We sell more equipment to on-site and online bidders than any other company in the world.

With corporate offices in Canada, the U.S. and the Netherlands, more than 40 auction sites worldwide, and a huge sales force, Ritchie Bros. employs more than 1,400 smart, dedicated people in a wide variety of roles: auction operations, sales, finance, accounting, IT and internet services, marketing, HR, customer service and more. We offer great benefits, ongoing training, growth opportunities, a culture built on teamwork, integrity and fun – and the chance to be part of something big.
