Aston Barclay has reported record buyer attendance across its centres during the first week of its new sales schedule.
Across the week, Aston Barclay saw a 35% increase in Attendees.
Gordon Cockle, chief remarketing officer at Aston Barclay, said “With our new sales schedule offering higher volume levels and more variety in the stock we are offering to our buyers, it was great to see some many of our customers head down to the halls and help us celebrate with us during our launch events.
“We have had some fantastic feedback from both buyers and vendors on the improvements we have made to the auction programme, and this has come to fruition through the fantastic conversion rates we have seen as a result of a busy and bustling hall.
“Across all our centres, we have had a fantastic start to 2025, welcoming new vendors across our Fleet, Dealer and Commercial sales, so this, along with some exciting announcements we have in the pipeline, our buyers have a lot to look forward to this year.”
The Donington Centre, its new commercial super centre, saw a 108% increase in attendance for its Dealer and Commercial launch auction in the halls. A 123% increase in online buyers was seen online.
Wakefield’s launch of the new Dealer sale, on a Tuesday from 3pm, saw a 30% increase in physical buyers and a 35% increase of online buyers.
