About us

Fifty years at the hammer

H&F International Limited is an auction house based in Fordham, Cambridgeshire, selling commercial vehicles, imports, plant and luxury assets to a bidder base spanning the UK, United States and Canada.

We started buying and selling commercial vehicles in the East of England in the 1970s. The trade has changed almost beyond recognition since — the auction moved online, the buyers went global, and North American imports became a business of their own — but the job hasn’t. Describe the asset honestly, put it in front of enough of the right people, and let the market set the price.

Today we run timed online sales from the Fordham saleroom, with offices in Halifax, Nova Scotia and New York supporting import, export and overseas bidders.

The history above is drafted from the current site’s claims and still needs H&F’s sign-off on dates and detail. H&F’s own wording is “Over 50 yearsexperience” with no founding year given, so no specific year is asserted here or in this page’s structured data. Trade association membership has been left out for the same reason — see the notes in content/site.ts.

TODO(client): the current site publishes two different UK addresses — 67 Station Road on the contact page and 69 Station House on the locations page — and the terms give a third variant including “Station Yard”. The version above is the one confirmed for this build. Whichever is right has to match everywhere off-site too, including Google Business Profile and the auction platform listings.
