Euro Auctions, from Dromore, Northern Ireland, and one of the world’s leading auction houses specialising in heavy construction plant, commercial vehicles, agricultural machinery, and industrial equipment, is delighted to announce the acquisition of North Toronto Auction (NTA) of Innisfil, Ontario, following the recent acquisition of Jardine Auctioneers Inc. of Fredericton, New Brunswick, in March this year.

Jardine Auctioneers Inc and North Toronto Auction, join Michener Allen, the third Canadian auction house in the group, now making five permanent auction sites now operational in Canada.

The addition of these respected businesses, alongside Michener Allen, who we acquired in 2023, further develops our coast-to-coast presence in Canada, allowing us to deliver unmatched service and reach nationwide. We’re excited to welcome both Jardine and North Toronto teams into our auction community and look forward to building on their success to provide even greater value to customers both nationally and internationally.”
