of Rob
Mackay, its president, effective October 31. After

"Rob has
contributed very effectively in so many ways to the success and growth of our
company," said Peter Blake, CEO of Ritchie Bros. "He has traveled
hundreds of thousands of miles over the past 28 years and devoted his time and
energy to help build the Ritchie Bros. global business into the industry
leading position we have today. Earlier in the

very best for a happy and healthy retirement, and offer him our heartfelt
thanks for all he has done to make Ritchie Bros. what we are today."
