PnP shop fixtures and equipment go under the hammer

● Park Village Auctions (PVA) will host a timed online auction at which the fittings, fixtures and equipment of a Craighall Park Pick n Pay supermarket and Pick n Pay Liquor shop will be sold individually.

PVA’s Werner Burger says timed auctions provide an ideal platform for buyers to place considered bids.

“Considering the current competitiveness of the retail, food and beverages industries, the upcoming auction presents an opportunity for retailers, caterers, restaurateurs or bakers to pick up otherwise costly capital equipment for a fraction of the cost if bought new or second-hand,” Burger added

Assets to be sold include assorted multitier upright food display fridges; food display bains-marie; single- and doublesided steel gondola shelving; and assorted walk-in fridge/freezers with shelving.

Bakery assets include a bun divider, bread roller, dough roller and dough mixer. Butchery assets include sausage fillers, meat mincers and bandsaws.

It must be noted that no trade stock is included in the sale.

“Buyers have the luxury of parking a bid while doing their homework to determine a fair price for capex equipment and adjust before the bids close,” says Burger. “That way, there’s no risk of outpricing yourself on shopfitting,”

The auction will start at 10am on Monday March 11 and end at noon the next Monday, March 18.

Interested bidders are encouraged to view the assets at 369 Jan Smuts Avenue, Craighall Park, Johannesburg on March 11 and 12 between 9am and 3pm, and on March 18 between 9am and noon.
