The May 2 – 7, 2022 online auction attracted more than 23,800 bidders from 55 countries, with approximately 91% of the equipment sold to Canadians, including 56% sold to Albertans. The remaining nine percent of the assets were purchased by international buyers from as far away as Belgium, India, Australia, and Peru.

Equipment highlights in the six-day auction included 300+ truck tractors, 190+ excavators, 130+ skid steers, 130+ dozers, 100+ forklifts, 60+ aerial work forms, 50+ agricultural tractors, and more. Approximately 70 items were sold for Alberta company Green Pastures Holdings Ltd.

"We've been buying and selling with Ritchie Bros. since we started our company 17 years ago," said Kevin Kossman, who owns and operates Green Pastures with his wife, Liela. "They are always professional and organized, their financing is great, and our sales rep is always quick to respond. As far as I'm concerned, Ritchie Bros. is the only way to sell equipment."
