Why Auctivo
Built to close the gap between advice and execution.
Auctivo was founded to meet a clear need in the market: the lack of independent partners who take full responsibility for complex asset sales. Especially in insolvency, restructuring, and forced liquidation. We saw that clients didn’t just need advice; they needed specialists who act, solve, and deliver. Auctivo bridges that gap with hands-on execution and industry expertise.
That’s why we built Auctivo around a team of specialists with decades of experience in the auction industry, the automotive sector, and valuation services. Whether it's organizing large-scale asset sales, assessing the value of unique items, or managing time-sensitive logistics, our people know the terrain inside out. This broad expertise allows us to act quickly, accurately, and with confidence, even under pressure.
At Auctivo, we make it our mission to be available 24/7, to lighten our clients’ workload, and to deliver practical solutions for every challenge. Whether you're dealing with insolvency, asset liquidation, or a complex valuation question, we're here to support you. Not just as advisors, but as partners.
What we do
At Auctivo, auctions are at the heart of what we do. With over 18 years of experience, we organize secure, efficient, and well-coordinated auctions — whether it involves vehicles, inventory, equipment, or entire business contents. We combine in-depth industry knowledge with hands-on execution to deliver reliable results and peace of mind.
Our team knows how to handle sensitive data and privacy requirements, and we work closely with logistics partners, valuation experts, and legal professionals to ensure a seamless process from start to finish.
When needed, we offer a range of additional services to fully support the auction process or complex transitions such as insolvency cases:
Securing goods, vehicles, and stock.
Organizing business clear-outs and delivering premises broom-clean.

Why choose Auctivo?
How to start selling in an auction
Our partners
BeXchange is an independent digital auction platform for business takeovers, restructurings, and restarts. The platform offers a safe and transparent environment where business assets – fully or partially – can be sold digitally through public or private bidding.
Sustainability
At Auctivo, we believe that giving used business assets a second life isn’t just smart — it’s sustainable. Every piece of equipment, furniture, or inventory that gets reused means less waste, fewer raw materials used, and a smaller carbon footprint.
Instead of letting good stuff collect dust or end up in landfills, we help businesses pass it on to others who can put it to work again. It’s all about making the most of what’s already out there — saving money and the planet at the same time.
Buying and selling through Auctivo means being part of a more circular, responsible economy. And that feels good — and it directly supports UN Sustainable Development Goal 12: Responsible Consumption and Production.
