Our motivation for buyers

As our customer you should be able to:

find exactly what you are looking for
not be confined by restrictions such as geography, accessibility or communication channels
know you are getting a good market rate
purchase in a reliable environment
utilise our vast network of domestic and international contacts when searching for suitable plant and machinery
take advantage of our extensive industry knowledge.

This means your business can reach its full potential and not be held back by a lack of quality, beneficial equipment.

Our motivation for sellers

have the best chance of getting a good price by advertising directly to a large market of your potential buyers
know you are getting a good market rate
be able to sell in a reliable environment
be able to vet purchasers and approve appropriate buyers

Our solution was to create a new form of online broker

our high level of experience spanning many years
still being able to retain control of the buying and selling process.

With the largest range of production plant and machinery in New Zealand, and a huge database of buyers and sellers, who we regularly keep in contact with, we offer a service that is highly accessible, reliable and knowledgeable.

If we don’t have the equipment you’re looking for listed online, we can tap into our vast network of contacts, both within New Zealand and overseas, and source it for you. This means you have the time to concentrate on your business.
