Family businesses create a lasting legacy that brings with it a sense of accomplishment and a strong sense of pride and integrity. “Not only am I passionate about auctioneering, but I have built on the efforts of my forefathers which motivates us to be stewards of our family business and with it comes a build-in loyalty to carry the legacy to new heights, in the name of the family but also in service to our customers” says Robin Mills.

Further validation of their professionalism is reinforced by their membership to SAIA (South Africa Institute of Auctioneers) as well as the cover they offer their clients via the Fidelity Insurance Fund protecting customers against fraud or embezzlement.
