Wilsons Auction Newport adds a new Unreserved General Auction to its offering
WILSONS Auctions Newport is gearing up for a busy month, having achieved a successful start to the new year, with the addition of an Unreserved General Auction.
The new offering, which comes following the success of the Unreserved Government Auction, will take place at 6pm tomorrow.
All lots are unreserved, going to the highest bidder and will include government entries from electronics and bikes to jewellery, clothing and artwork, giving customers another chance to purchase a bargain.
Since Wilsons Auctions took over the site in Newport late last year, its weekly car auctions have seen fantastic sales through the continued support of Newport’s loyal customers and existing vendors including Newtown Motors, Southern Vauxhall, Motorplus Supermarket and Secure Trust Bank.
Under the new management of Wilsons Auctions Newport, a significant amount of investment will be made into the branch bringing fresh car stock for bidders from Eastern Western Motor Group, Moneyway and local authority vehicles.
Talking of Newport’s start to the year, Wilsons Auctions General Manager Nigel Binks said: “We are delighted with the very encouraging start to the year with fantastic sales across our weekly car auctions. We would like to thank the loyal customers and vendors for their continued support throughout our transition of Newport and as we progress.
“Following on from the success of our January auctions we expect to see more diverse sales in the coming months as we prepare to welcome new vendors which we hope generates a new customer base for the branch,” he added.
The weekly car auctions at Wilsons Auctions Newport take place every Monday and Wednesday at 6pm and on Fridays at 11.30am.
Wilsons Auctions Newport expanded its offering last month with a Plant and Machinery and Unreserved Government Auction. These auctions not only helped to put Wilsons Auctions Newport on the map but also generated a brand new audience.
Wilsons Auctions holds over 1,000 auctions annually across its branches, auctioning everything from cars and vans, plant and machinery, and property to general goods, as well as the more luxurious items including planes, yachts, gold bars, supercars, designer goods and prestigious watches.
Wilsons Auctions is a family owned business, formed in 1936 in Northern Ireland, it has grown to become the largest independent auction company in the British Isles with sites in Northern Ireland, Wales, the Republic of Ireland, England and Scotland.
The company’s acquisition of Newport Auctions will help to expand Wilsons Auctions’ presence across Wales, along with its Queensferry branch in the north, and with future growth plans will see the company invest further into the local area and create further job opportunities.
Upcoming auctions at Wilsons Auctions Newport, in addition to its weekly car auctions, includes an Unreserved General Auction tomorrow, Unreserved Government Auction on March 14 and a Plant, Machinery and Commercial Auction on March 22.
