TBAuctions has organized its operations into three regions: Continental Europe, the Nordics, and Benelux & UK. As part of this strategic alignment, Surplex will focus on strengthening its presence in Continental Europe. Consequently, our offices in Belgium and the Netherlands will transition to our sister brand, Troostwijk, which has a stronghold in the Benelux region. Similarly, our operations in the UK will be managed by Troostwijk, which oversees the UK market. In the Nordics, established brands like Klaravik will continue to lead the market, ensuring that regional expertise and customer focus remain paramount. This strategic realignment enhances collaboration and leverages the strengths of the entire TBAuctions network, providing our customers with comprehensive services tailored to each region's unique needs.
Surplex will no longer list machinery located in Belgium or the Netherlands. Instead, interested sellers can sell their machinery through Troostwijk or Vavato, both of which are deeply rooted in the Benelux region. Buyers will also find these assets there, benefiting from the local expertise and strong market presence of these brands. This realignment ensures an even better experience for both buyers and sellers within the TBAuctions network.
