Proxibid expands into the UK and Europe

 

World Cement,

Proxibid is expanding its operations into the UK to better serve its growing global base of buyers and sellers.

The online marketplace for buying and selling highly valued items has headquarters in Omaha, Nebraska, as well as offices in New York and, following its launch in the UK, now also in London. The company provides online selling solutions to more than 3000 auction companies, asset owners and third party sales agencies around the world. Over US$2 billion worth of inventory passes through Proxibid’s Marketplace each year in 15 product categories, which include construction, commercial and industrial equipment.

“We are excited to announce our new UK presence,” said Ryan Downs, President and CEO of Proxibid. “This move enables us to better serve our existing UK and European buyers and sellers, and positions us to offer our unique portfolio of ecommerce solutions and access to our large global community of buyers to sellers throughout Europe.  The Proxibid Marketplace is growing quickly and international expansion is the next logical step for this organisation.”
