History of a car auction from USA Manheim

It was founded in 1945 as a wholesale car market. The name received in honor of the village in which he appeared. The first deals were in the stable. Due to the fact that in the post-war period it was not easy to find a quality car, the company quickly became successful. The sale of prestigious vehicles allowed owners to quickly develop their business.

By the beginning of the 80s, the company already had 12 trading floors. To date, Manheim auctions are located in all US states and consist of more than 100 platforms, the largest of which is located in Pennsylvania.
