With more equestrian auctions being held online or in a hybrid form with live auctions, it is not easy to keep track of them all. Remembering which lot is a favorite and when a specific foal, horse or embryo is up for auction can be a challenge. Barnbridge was founded to make the auction market more accessible and easier to keep track of.
Barnbridge was initiated by several parties who are involved in the world of auctions. They saw an opportunity to bring individual auctions together on one platform and help auction organizers reach an even broader audience. The aim of Barnbridge is to gather all the lots of equestrian auctions and keep their website users connected and up to date.
Search alerts
The Barnbridge website provides an overview of upcoming and past auctions including each individual horse per auction. Members can create personalized search alerts to get notifications when specific auctions or horses match their filters. This feature ensures that members will never have to miss an auction or a specific lot.
Database
Knowledge is everything and therefore the Barnbridge website is building an archive. Together with the auction partners the platform will create an extensive database of equestrian lots that have been auctioned. Each sold lot will be archived online and if made available the hammer price of each individual lot will be accessible to the Barnbridge members.
Partnerships
Auctions organizations can use the platform to increase their visibility and connect with potential clients. Barnbridge is proud to have already formed partnerships with several elite auctions. These include among others the Zangersheide Auction, Flanders Auctions, Prinsjesdag Auction, Bolesworth Elite Auctions, The Swedish Warmblood Association, and the Dutch Sport Horse Sales. These partners trust the vision of the Barnbridge team, and they believe the platform will increase their reach and will bring sellers and buyers together.
Community
The calendar of all the partner auctions and their individual lots gives website visitors a complete and easy overview. With the launch of the platform the Barnbridge team aims to form more partnerships with auctions worldwide, to give the Barnbridge community the best possible outline of events and lots.
Become an insider
With a passion for auctions the Barnbridge website will also feature in dept interviews with people from the industry. The platform will highlight the best of the auction world to become a household name and the go-to website to learn more about live and online auctions.
