We did it again!

Once again we have been elected as FD Gazellen! For the third time in a row we may call ourselves one of the fastest growing companies in the Netherlands! The highly coveted awards are handed out by the Financieel Dagblad. On March 24th the festive ceremony of the FD Gazellen Awards of the year 2021 took place in the Theater Amsterdam! Being nominated for the award of the fastest growing companies in the Netherlands is of course an honor in itself, but what is even better than ending up in the top 10?

From the total of 691 FD Gazelles we proudly ended on place number 9 (region south / medium) with a growth in sales of 299%. Together with our hardworking team of auctioneers we make it a party every day. Let's make it clear that without you, our customers, we couldn't have done it! We can say that we did this together. On to the top 3!

The FD Gazellen Awards are prizes awarded to the fastest growing companies in the Netherlands. For 2021 it concerns companies that showed at least 20% revenue growth from 2018 to 2020 and closed the year 2020 with a profit. In addition, the increase in the number of employees is considered. Revenue growth is one, but that doesn't mean you've already added value as a company. Creating jobs and making a profit are also two factors that are important today and for us as a company.

While the list of Gazelles is down over 10% from last year, that is against all odds. Despite the contraction, it is more than expected in a year when the economy contracted by 3.7% because of the corona pandemic. The fact that the nominees grew above average was due to the coronapandemic (these were mainly ICT companies and web stores) and the other managed to keep its head above water in a creative way despite everything. During the pandemic, for example, they responded to the wishes and needs of consumers. It's great that we in the small country of the Netherlands can achieve this together and have made it happen! On to the FD Gazelles of 2022!
